    Dominque Alexander injury

    Does anyone know if his injury will keep out of the KSU game? He had a cast on his right forearm after the game.

    I haven't heard anything, but where has he been this season? Jordan Evans has twice as many tackles. Is it the 3-4 defense? I'm concerned his name isn't at the top of the leading tacklers.

    Stoops said on his show tonight he would play with the cast.

    Is he the person with the thumb injury?
    Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.

    He went back in the game with the cast on. They haven't X-rayed it, but he should be fine.

    Not to be captain obvious...Its easy to forget frank shannon is suspended because every one has moved on to the players available, yet i cant help but think his leadership and tackling ability would have made a massive difference for this defense. Has gastellum played lb in the last 2 wks?

    Yep. Losing Frank wasn't a good thing.

    Not sure what statistics you're looking at, but Alexander is tied with Evans leading the team in tackles. This is updated and includes Saturday's Texas game:

    Player Tackles (solo & assisted)
    Alexander, Dominique 49
    Evans, Jordan 49
    Thomas, Ahmad 30
    Striker, Eric 29
    Hayes, Quentin 29
    Grissom, Geneo 28
    Sanchez, Zack 25
    Wilson, julian 23
    Ndulue, Chuka 23
    Tapper, Charles 18
    Phillips, Jordan 16


    The tackle chart looks exactly how it should for a 3-4 defense (LBs leading, followed by FS and the D-line at the bottom). I'd be concerned if our safeties were at the top, but it's not really close.

    ALEXANDER RETURNS WITH THUMB BRACE

    Just before Zack Sanchez’s second-quarter interception return for a touchdown, Sooners linebacker Dominique Alexander — Oklahoma’s leading tackler on the season and in Saturday’s game to that point — left with an injury.

    Alexander had to head into the locker room when his thumb got trapped while making a tackle with teammate Charles Tapper on Texas’ Johnathan Gray.

    After a drive with Aaron Franklin on the field as his replacement, Alexander returned with his right hand heavily wrapped.

    “I’ve still got to go out and get X-rays,” Alexander said after the game. “It was different. It was harder to use my hands, but it’s something I have to get used to.”

    Alexander finished with 11 tackles.

    Oklahoma’s other middle linebacker, Jordan Evans, led OU with 14.
