Tawee Walker rushes for a nine-yard touchdown to extend Oklahoma's lead

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Single carry in win over WVU Walker recorded one carry for negative two yards during Saturday's 59-20 win versus West Virginia.

Impact Walker saw just one carry as teammate Gavin Sawchuk was the primary back against the Mountaineers with 22 carries for 135 yards. Both backs have seen work with Marcus Major dealing with a shoulder injury. Expect a mix of all three backs at BYU next week as Oklahoma should have no problems moving the ball versus that defense.

Warming up Saturday Walker (ankle) is in uniform and is warming up ahead of Saturday's game at Oklahoma State, Josh Callaway of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Walker is warming up ahead of Saturday's rivalry game, a great sign that he may be able to play. Last week he rushed 23 times for 146 yards and a touchdown, so he would be a huge boost for the Sooners' offense.

May be game-time decision Walker (ankle) may be a game-time decision for the Sooners' game Saturday at Oklahoma State, Tom Green of AL.com reports.

Impact According to Eric Bailey of the Tulsa World, Walker suffered significant pain in his left ankle during the Sooners' previous game, hence his availability status being at least a little murky for their matchup Saturday. The running back excelled during October, so him sitting out at Oklahoma State may be a significant hit to his positive momentum.

Big game after suspension Walker logged 23 carries for 146 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-33 defeat versus Kansas.

Impact Walker's return from a one-game suspension was a success with his second 100-yard rushing game of the season. He received the bulk of the carries with Marcus Major out with a shoulder injury. It's worth noting that quarterback Dillon Gabriel did have a season-high three rushing scores, so Walker's day could have been even better with more scoring opportunities. Walker is worth considering for fantasy purposes when Oklahoma plays at Oklahoma State next week if Major is forced to miss another game.

Not spotted in warmups Walker doesn't appear to be warming up ahead of Saturday's game versus UCF, Eli Lederman of Sellout Crowd reports.

Impact Coming off a lead role last week against Texas that included a pair of touchdowns, it appears Walker will likely sit out against a rough UCF rush defense, allowing nearly 200 rushing yards per game. Marcus Major would likely take on lead back duties if Walker sits as is seemingly expected.
