Coach Scott Frost said Monday that Oklahoma's speed will pose a challenge Saturday when his Huskers take on the Sooners in Norman.

On OU's game footage, "the speed just popped out right away," Frost said. "Every position."

Offensive lineman Turner Corcoran said one message from Frost during Monday's practice was that "these guys are fast. We’ve gotta play faster.”

As for the Huskers' struggles to establish a running game, Frost said Buffalo on Saturday "had the box packed, so that made it a little tough." But he said improvement is needed from everyone involved: the O-line, the running backs and the perimeter blockers.

Frost said true freshman offensive tackle Teddy Prochazka is "in the conversation" to be a part of the O-line rotation.
