Mississippi State’s starting QB Kamario Taylor and RB Fluff Bothwell remain questionable for Saturday’s 2:30 p.m. ET matchup against Oklahoma after missing the 31‑0 loss to LSU. Taylor’s foot injury dates back to Missouri’s Week 4 win, where he played through limited mobility and later left the Alabama game with three turnovers. Bothwell, also hurt versus Missouri, had logged three straight 100‑yard rushing games before missing the Alabama contest. Freshman Billy Puckett could see action; he started vs. LSU, finishing 16‑26 for 121 yards with one interception and 40 rushing yards. The Bulldogs (4‑2, 2‑2 SEC) host the Sooners (3‑3, 1‑2 SEC) amid additional questionable players on defense and the line.
The Bayou Bengals will be receiving some reinforcements when they venture into the not-so-friendly confines of Jordan-Hare Stadium.
