Peterson is only suspended for practice. He will suit up this Saturday. UCLA is favored by seven, but I wouldn't take that bet. I have a hunch the Sooners will show up and win!

NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops says he'll decide later this week whether suspended tailback Adrian Peterson will start Saturday against UCLA.
"We'll determine that as the week goes," Stoops said Tuesday. "We'll see. At this point, we anticipate him playing. Start or not depends on how we feel practice is going, what we feel we need to do. Depending on what further happens from here, we'll see."

He'll play...OU and Stoops can't afford another close game let alone another loss.

Well, Stoops better find another team then
. I think UCLA wins regardless of whether or not Peterson plays.

i agree, UCLA has this back named maurice drew who can flat out play. also, a family member of drew recently passed away so he is going to be determined to tear up oklahoma.

And I vaguely remember OU fans being some of the nicest we have encountered around here...So why are we taking pleasure in their misfortune?
I don't remember any making fun of our defense after we got lambasted by Wisconsin, do you?

I was kind of thinking the same thing. I have a lot of respect for their fan base, and I feel for them right now. They have been very, very supportive of us since we played them.
BOOMER!

Suspended for practice? uhoh
Is that even a punishment? At least make him sitout a quarter.

He's no Booker Stanley, that's for sure.
