Febechi Nwiawu wasn't going to miss the Auburn game. Oklahoma's starting right guard suffered a nasty ankle sprain against Temple, the week before facing the Tigers. And many thought he might not be able to play. But Nwiawu played every snap for the Sooners and was a big reason why OU won, as the offensive line allowed only one sack.
