Oklahoma RB Samaje Perine will practice this week and is expected to play against Baylor on Saturday, coach Bob Stoops announced on the Big 12's weekly coaches teleconference.
Perine has not played since the Sooners' second drive in their 38-17 victory over Kansas State on Oct. 15. He sustained a pulled muscle in his leg and missed the next three games against Texas Tech, Kansas and Iowa State. Those were the first three games in which the junior did not play during his time at OU.
Perine has 475 yards rushing and six touchdowns this season to go with 94 yards receiving and a score.
