Oak seedling ID

[KDdid]

Last fall I direct seeded a bunch of acorns in tubes. While cleaning tubes out today I noticed there was a certain species of oak that outgrew all others. I planted white, swamp white, northern red, chinquapin, and bur. Can I get some help identifying this particular one? Looks like a red to me (because of the points), but it’s somewhat different from other red seedlings I have growing on their own, and it almost has a chestnut oak-like overall shape. Is this a chinquapin?

It’s for sure not a bur oak.
Edit: i think its chinkapin. I ran out and checked the swamp whites in the yard and the leaf looks more rounded on the lobes in my opinion.

Looks like a Northern red more so than the others you listed. But it actually looks like a black oak (which is in the red-oak family). Chinkapin still has rounded points and that leaf clearly has pointed ones.

Just curious, how tall was the tube?
