You may or may not have noticed there was one notable player missing from Saturday’s homecoming contest in Stillwater: Senior wide receiver Brandon Sheperd.
Sheperd was rumored to miss the contest due to an undisclosed team issue, and Bill Haisten confirmed as much on Monday.

Sheperd, who has been a starter since the beginning of the season, will likely play in Saturday’s contest but will come off the bench for the first time this year.
