Oklahoma linebacker Travis Lewis started Saturday night's game against No. 5 Florida State about five weeks after he broke his left big toe.

The top-ranked Sooners (1-0) initially expected Lewis, their leading tackler last season, to miss the first month of the season. But he was back in the lineup for their biggest non-conference game of the season.
