Big 12 Daily Fever: Sooners Await Status of Key LB

Posted: Aug 17, 2009

Big 12 Daily Fever is the top Big 12 story of the day. Disagree? Let us know.

Oklahoma is still awaiting word on the status of linebacker Mike Balogun. A 25-year old senior who

 started last year’s BCS Title Game, Balogun was flagged on Friday by the NCAA for participation in a semi-pro league past the age of 21.

While the roster is loaded, the Sooners need ‘all hands on deck’ on the defensive side of the

 ball in order to get back to playing the type of defense they were known for earlier this decade. Sam Bradford and the record-setting offense covered up a defense last season that allowed 21 or more points in the last nine games.

To win another Big 12 crown, Oklahoma will need to avoid key injuries (like Ryan Reynolds, Auston English and DeMarcus Granger in ‘08) and issues like the one plaguing Balogun. Stay tuned.
