Eric Striker, Hatari Byrd Facing Discipline for Conduct After Oklahoma-Tennessee

Oklahoma Sooners defenders Eric Striker and Hatari Byrd will face internal punishment for taunting Tennessee fans after the team's overtime victory over the Volunteers this past Saturday in Knoxville.

Sooners head coach Bob Stoops announced the news Monday, per NewsOK.com's Berry Tramel:

Their actions in the heat of the moment and all emotionally are absolutely inappropriate, and they'll be dealt with in an educational manner. ... We'll handle it internally. [...] There's no excuse...[but] they play out there in a controlled rage. You just don't go out there and be all mild-mannered and it all works out for you.
