Tory Blaylock is Oklahoma’s rising, downhill back with big-play pop
Blaylock enters the 2026 season as Oklahoma’s sophomore RB after showing real juice in 2025, when he finished with 391 rushing yards and 4 rushing touchdowns on 87 carries while also adding 7 catches. He’s a compact, physical runner at 5'11", 212 pounds who can hit a crease and finish forward, and he flashed lead-back ability with 100-yard games against Temple and South Carolina before a lingering shoulder injury slowed him down. If you want a back who brings burst, toughness, and upside, he’s worth caring about; if you need a proven, fully healthy workhorse, the sample is still growing.
