With one of the most physical games of the season upon them this Saturday, the Oklahoma Sooners took a big blow to their defensive front today when Bob Stoops announced star defensive lineman Charles Walker would be out for the Texas game with a concussion.
Absolutely horrible news if true...that Charles Walker has concussion and won't play v Texas. @NEWS9 #OU #Sooners

Walker's injury occurred in the win over TCU this past weekend, but this isn't his first time he's had to miss action with a concussion. Walker also missed the Sooners' semifinal matchup with Clemson last season with the same injury.
Hard to get worse 4 #Sooners D going into #Texas game. No sr captain LB Evans, no nickel Johnson (no Dimon) & now no DL Walker. Huge @NEWS9

Walker has recorded seven tackles on the season, two for loss, and has four pass breakups to his name.
