Offensive
Line / Defensive Front |
OU
has put together a long
line of heralded offensive
linemen over Coach Stoops
watch and next season
should be no different.
Granted this unit will
need to find another center
to replace All-American
Gabe Ikard, but there
is plenty of talent and
experience to go around.
The entire defensive front
seven will be returning.
If games are won and lost
up front Oklahoma is in
fine shape. |

Quarterback
/ Running Back / Receiver |
Will
it be Blake Bell or Trevor
Knight taking snaps and
are either of them capable
of getting this team to
where it wants to be?
If the Sugar Bowl was
any indication, Knight
is the man to put this
team back in the National
Championship discussions.
The top three running
backs are history. Locating
a ball carrier has never
seemed to be much of a
problem in Norman but
this is an area to certainly
keep an eye on this spring
to see who emerges as
a go to back. The receivers
are also thin on experience.
If the offensive line
can do its part there
may not be much of a need
for concern at the skill
positions. However, there
certainly are a good bit
of unanswered questions.
