Oklahoma OL Michael Fasusi doubtful for Red River Rivalry, latest on return.
Oklahoma · Texas · UTEPHe’s currently listed as doubtful for this weekend’s Red River Rivalry game against Texas and is not expected to play, sources said. No timetable is clear, but the star offensive tackle and Oklahoma’s best offensive lineman is working to return.
“And we thought it best to give him, just looking at the long term, both this season and just overall, and it giving the best chance to get healthy for the near future.” A former Five-Star Plus+ recruit, Fasusi reinjured his shoulder in the Sooners’ season-opening win over UTEP after an injury during training camp.
He was the prized recruit of Oklahoma’s 2025 recruiting class and played in 11 games as a true freshman, starting 10 at left tackle.
