NORMAN -Oklahoma cornerback Eli Bowenand safety Peyton Bowenare both listed as questionable on Wednesday's initial SEC Availability report ahead of the Sooners' Saturday with No. 24 Florida in The Swamp (6:45 p.m., SEC Network).
Tight end Rocky Beersis also listed as questionable for the Sooners.
Eli Bowen hasn't played since the Sept. 26 loss to Georgia after suffering an ankle injury in practice in the days leading up to the Red River Rivalry.
Sophomore Trystan Hayneshas been starting in Bowen's place.
The Sooners will once again be thin at cornerback even if Eli Bowen can play as Jacobe Johnsonand Dakoda Fieldsalso remain out.
Peyton Bowenwas injured on an interception against Mississippi State on Oct. 24, and though he didn't start, he played limited snaps in last week's loss to South Carolina.
The Sooners' offensive line will once again be limited as Ryan Fodjewill miss his third consecutive game after being injured in the second half against Kentucky.
Guard Eddy Pierre-Louisis listed as doubtful. Pierre-Louis has missed each of the last four games.
Center Jake Maikkulais listed as probable after missing the loss to the Gamecocks. Caleb Nittastarted in Maikkula's absence.
Beers' status figures to be a big factor for an Oklahoma offense going into its first game under interim offensive coordinator Jason Witten.
Beers is the Sooners' second-leading receiver with 34 catches for 446 yards and a team-high four touchdowns. Oklahoma will also once again be without another tight end, Trynae Washington.
Oklahoma's receivers will be limited as well, as Trell Harrisremains out, while Elijah Thomasis doubtful and Jer'Michael Carteris listed as questionable.
Linebacker Cole Sullivanalso remains out after suffering an injury in the win over Mississippi State. Defensive end Kenny Ozowaluis listed as questionable.
For Florida. the biggest name on the report might be wide receiver Vernell Brown III. The Gators hoped to have the talented pass catcher back for last week's matchup with Georgbia, but a setback in practice kept him out of that game. Brown is listed as doubtful against the Sooners.
