Texas did not include running back Hollywood Smothers on its first SEC-mandated availability report before Saturday’s game against Oklahoma in Dallas. His absence from the list does not confirm he is fit to play.

The report, released on Wednesday, listed tight end Nick Townsend as probable, receiver Kaliq Lockett and defensive lineman Justus Terry as doubtful, and offensive lineman Jordan Coleman as out.

Smothers sat out Texas’s 20–17 win over Tennessee on 26 September while managing a leg injury. He has recorded 198 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season, according to Yahoo Sports.

Oklahoma listed 13 players: four out, three doubtful, five questionable and one probable. Availability designations may change before Saturday’s game.
