Offensively, at least according to Pro Football Focus, this was OU’s best offensive performance since beating Auburn five weeks ago. It was the offense’s best grade in a loss at 57.4.

The Sooners threw out their seventh different starting offensive line combo of the season in Jacob Sexton, Heath Ozaeta, Troy Everett, Febechi Nwaiwu and Michael Tarquin. Four of them played all 86 snaps: Ozaeta, Everett, Nwaiwu and Tarquin. Sexton, though, left the game twice because of an injury and never returned after the second time, totaling 29 snaps, according to PFF. In his place, Logan Howland played 57 snaps.

Of the linemen, Tarquin received the best grade at 65.4, followed by Nwaiwu (64.5), Everett (60.4), Howland (54.4), Ozaeta (52.3) and Sexton (38.7), as the group gave a program-worst 10 sacks. According to PFF, Ozaeta and Howland were each responsible for two of those sacks.

Running back was the most successful offensive position, according to PFF. Jovantae Barnes and Taylor Tatum were the highest-graded offensive players at 68.7 and 67.1, respectively. Sam Franklin was also at No. 6 with a 61.6. Their snap distribution went Barnes (59), Tatum (23) and Franklin (5).

For the first time since Week 3 against Tulane, Jackson Arnold started and finished a game as QB1. PFF graded his performance at 55.6, which is his worst grade as a starter this season other than when he was pulled against Tennessee.
