After missing last season due to injury, sophomore receiver Jeff Badet is listed No. 1 on the depth chart going into Saturday's first game.

Stoops said either Badet or Blake Bone would start depending on this week's practice.

"That’s the great thing about competition. I think Jeff really has done some great things throughout camp. You’ve heard me mention it. I thought he had a really good week of practice last week. And it’s nice," Stoops said.

"There’s another guy that redshirted a year ago but he’s in his third year in this program, and it’s important to have him back. And again, I mentioned Alex (Montgomery), and Alex is — he’s playing a spot where we’re probably as deep as any position we have on our team, at the inside wide receiver position.

"We have some guys that have really done a nice job and made some plays. So Alex needs to work his way back into the rotation, and just get on the field more than anything. Alex has had little setbacks from his injury and really hasn’t gotten the reps, but he’s getting back in there now. So, anxious to get him back in the fold as well.”
