Ohio State Linebacker Dante Booker Out Against Oklahoma With Sprained Knee

Related Topics: Linebacker, Knee, Dante Booker, Oklahoma

If Ohio State is going to contain an explosive Oklahoma offense, it is going to have to do so without one of its starting 11 players on defense.

Dante Booker is in gym shorts and not warming up for Saturday's game against the Sooners. He also has a black brace on his right knee. A sprained MCL in that knee caused him to miss last week's 48-3 victory against Tulsa.

Urban Meyer upgraded Booker's status to probable on Monday. He then said the junior was questionable Wednesday for the contest with the Sooners after Booker did not practice much that day.
