The Oklahoma Sooners offensive line faces personnel adjustments for the upcoming game against the Michigan Wolverines. Starting left tackle Michael Fasusi is expected to miss the contest due to injury. Ryan Fodje is projected to fill the vacancy at left tackle while center Jake Maikkula returns to the lineup. Fodje previously started six games as a true freshman at both guard and tackle positions. Although Fodje moved toward center during August to address depth issues, he missed the season opener after sustaining a practice injury. The Sooners recruited Fodje as a top-10 offensive tackle prospect in the 2025 class before he earned numerous offers from other Power Four programs. He will now test his capabilities against the Michigan defensive unit.
