Oklahoma Student Newspaper Reports on Quarterback Competition, Sooners Cancel Media Availability

Lincoln Riley has a difficult decision to make regarding Oklahoma's starting quarterback ahead of Saturday's matchup with TCU, but it appears freshman Caleb Williams has the edge.

Riley opted against naming a starter during Tuesday's press conference, noting "we'll see how it goes Saturday," as Williams battles former Heisman candidate Spencer Rattler. But after the student newspaper OU Daily reported Williams received a majority of first-place reps during Tuesday's practice, Oklahoma canceled all media availability ahead of Saturday's matchup.

Perhaps we aren't getting any more information on the quarterback battle before Saturday, but the Oklahoma student paper deserves legitimate props for its insight into Riley's upcoming decision.
