OU's Thomas tossed, faces suspension next week

Oklahoma defensive lineman R Mason Thomas is ejected for high hit on Temple quarterback Evan Simon. (0:36)

Oklahoma defensive lineman R Mason Thomas will be suspended for the first half of the Sooners' Week 4 visit from No. 24 Auburn following a targeting ejection Saturday.

Thomas, Oklahoma's 2024 sack leader, was ejected in the third quarter of the program's Week 3 visit to Temple on Saturday afternoon following a high hit on Owls quarterback Evan Simon.

Thomas was initially penalized for roughing the passer with the Sooners leading 28-3. The penalty was upgraded to targeting following an official review. Per NCAA rules, targeting penalties incurred in the second half of a game result in a first-half suspension in the subsequent game.

Oklahoma DL R Mason Thomas ejected for targeting, to miss first half vs. Auburn in Jackson Arnold's return

Oklahoma defensive lineman R Mason Thomas was ejected from Saturday's Week 3 game at Temple for a targeting penalty and will be suspended for the first half of the key Week 4 showdown with Auburn as a result of the foul. His absence for the remainder of this week's contest is likely not a setback — the Sooners held a 28-3 lead when he exited — but Oklahoma will be without an All-SEC standout when it opens conference play in what should be a top 25 clash with Tigers QB (and former OU signal-caller) Jackson Arnold returning to Norman.

Officials determined upon review that Thomas' hit on Temple quarterback Evan Simon in the third quarter rose to the level of targeting after initially throwing the flag for roughing the passer.
