The Oklahoma Sooners offense has struggled significantly in the past three weeks, averaging only 12.3 points per game after a strong opening against UTEP. Key areas for improvement include quarterback John Mateer's confidence, the health of left tackle Michael Fasusi, and a more effective running game. The Sooners' rushing attack ranks near the bottom nationally, and finding ways to involve tight end Rocky Beers and enhance the quick passing game are critical as they look to regain offensive momentum.
