OU head coach Bob Stoops said that the anticipated recovery time is three weeks. Stoops called Box "doubtful" for the season opener against Tennessee-Chattanooga, but "probable" for game two against Cincinnati.
 
The Sooners continue preseason practice on Wednesday with two sessions scheduled for 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. Please visit 2008 Preseason Central for complete coverage of Sooner football.
