Starting kicker Patrick O'Hara missed No. 7 Oklahoma's game Saturday against Air Force with a muscle strain.

O'Hara, a walk-on, emerged from a competition with former starter Jimmy Stevens and freshman Michael Hunnicutt to win the job in the preseason. He is 3-for-4 on field goals so far this season, missing from 44 yards and connecting on three shorter kicks.

O'Hara did not warm up and was wearing sweatpants with his jersey shirt.

Stevens took his place.
