Injury News: WVU Expected to Get Some Guys Back Versus Oklahoma State
USA TODAY Sports

West Virginia was without starting left tackle Wyatt Milum (eye) and left guard Tomas Rimac (leg) for last Thursday's game against Houston. Nick Malone and JaQuay Hubbard did a good job filling in but Milum and Rimac are all Big-12-level performers, making it a big loss for that unit up front.

The good news is, head coach Neal Brown feels confident that Milum will be back in action this week for the matchup against Oklahoma State. As for Rimac, he is targeting a return for next week on the road at UCF. Brown says that's the earliest Rimac will be back in the fold.

Running back Justin Johnson Jr. was out with an illness last week, but his status for this week is unknown.

On the other side of the ball, safety Aubrey Burks was a limited participant in practice today and will take his situation day by day.
