NORMAN — Another week, another busy initial availability report for Oklahoma.
The Sooners listed 13 players Wednesday ahead of Saturday's road game at Mississippi State, including four offensive linemen.
Star left tackle Michael Fasusi was listed as questionable to return. Fasusi hasn't played since he injured his shoulder against UTEP in the season opener.
Offensive lineman Ryan Fodje was ruled out for Saturday's game after suffering an injury in OU's loss to Kentucky last weekend. Eddy Pierre-Louis was also ruled out, while Heath Ozaeta is questionable.
Defensive back Eli Bowen is questionable to return for the Sooners' defense.
All eyes have been on the status of Bulldogs star quarterback Kamario Taylor after he injured his foot against Missouri on Sept. 26. Taylor was listed as questionable. Mississippi State starting running back Fluff Bothwell was also listed as questionable.
Here's the full initial report ahead of OU's road trip to face the Bulldogs on Saturday at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville:
