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.
Beware the man who would rule you for your own good. He will never cease. He will regulate every aspect of your life, destroy your liberty and enslave you, and sleep well convinced that he has made the world a better place.
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?
No need to worry. Frank Shannon will be able to step up and fill in the slack...... oh wait, never mind
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.

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.
