Perkins is one of the best players on the whole roster, and he’s huge for the Sooners on defense. Without him on the field against the Tigers, the defense is going to be even worse off than they already would be at full strength.
These three guys had better done something really bad in order to get suspended for the playoff. This is the college football playoff!

If you’re going to suspend your players for the playoff, they better have done some incredibly inexcusable stuff.
If not, Lincoln Riley is choosing a really bad time to send a message to his team. In fact, he’s picking the worst time possible.
The Sooners will play the Tigers December 28, and they’re likely going to get smoked. I hope Riley feels like whatever he’s doing is justified.

If not, this could be a bad situation down in Oklahoma.
