Oklahoma Sooners Set to Exploit Vulnerable Temple Defense in Opener
The Temple Owls are entering the 2024 season with significant defensive hurdles, primarily due to the loss of standout linebacker Jordan Magee, who led the team in tackles and sacks. In response to these challenges, defensive coordinator Everett Withers has implemented a new 4-3 scheme, marking a major shift that could bolster their performance, particularly in run defense. For Oklahoma, this matchup provides a prime opportunity for quarterback Jackson Arnold to gain early-season experience against a transitioning Temple defense, which may be vulnerable due to their personnel changes.

Overall, the clash presents Oklahoma with a chance to refine their offense amidst Temple's defensive growing pains.
