Team Breakdown
Oklahoma projects to have one of the best defenses in the country, with NFL-caliber talent throughout the unit. David Stone, Jayden Jackson and Taylor Wein give the Sooners a ferocious defensive front, while brothers Peyton and Eli Bowen bring elite quickness and ball skills to the secondary. Offensively, John Mateer enters his final collegiate season looking improved and still has dynamic WR Isaiah Sategna as a primary weapon behind a big offensive line. Oklahoma’s defense should keep it in the SEC race until the end, while Mateer provides the splash-play ability to win close games.
Strengths
Elite defensive talent; Ferocious defensive line; Bowen brothers in secondary; John Mateer’s playmaking; Size up front offensively
Questions / Concerns
Offensive consistency; Mateer taking the next step in his final season
