Final availability report before South Carolina takes on Oklahoma
South Carolina is set to take on the Oklahoma Sooners at Gaylord Family – Oklahoma Memorial Stadium on Saturday. Kickoff is at 12:47 p.m. on SEC Network.
Before kickoff, both teams have released their final availability reports.
The Gamecocks will be without five players who have been ruled “out” for this game. Most notably, wide receiver Jared Brown will not play against the Sooners. This will be the second straight game he’s missed and third overall this season.
Others who won’t play for South Carolina include defensive backs Jalewis Solomon and Kelvin Hunter. Defensive tackle DeAndre Jules, who exited the Ole Miss game early two weekends ago, is out again for this week. Lastly, Jakai Moore, who hasn’t played at all so far this season, is out again on Saturday.
Oklahoma has a few more guys out for Saturday than the Gamecocks do. The Sooners will be without eight players for this game, four of which are wide receivers: Jayden Gibson, Jalil Farooq, Nic Anderson and Andrel Anthony. Leading receiver Deion Burks, who had been listed as questionable all week, is listed as a game-time decision.
Others out for the Sooners include defensive backs Gentry Williams and Kendel Dolby. Tight end Kade McIntyre, running back Sam Franklin and Geirean Hatchett are out, as well.

The SEC recently approved a player availability injury report system for football, men’s and women’s basketball and baseball.
SEC school personnel must submit availability reports three days before each football game, with daily updates leading to a final report 90 minutes before game time. For basketball and baseball, reports are filed the night before, with an update on game day.
According to the SEC, penalties for inaccurate or late reports will range from $25,000 to $100,000 for football and anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 for basketball and baseball.
When schools submit injury reports, players will be designated as available, probable, doubtful, and questionable before game day. On game day, designations will be available, game-time decision or out. The model follows injury reports similar to the NFL.
