The Oklahoma Sooners picked up an important road win over the Mississippi State Bulldogs on Saturday to move to 4-3 on the season and 2-2 in SEC play . Important to their chances for bowl eligibility . Important for getting some positive momentum for the final five games of the season.

OU football hasn't figured out offense since Jeff Lebby left. Now, they face off
Mississippi State football coach Jeff Lebby faces Oklahoma, his alma mater, for the first time as a head coach on Saturday, Oct. 24, when the Bulldogs host the Sooners in Starkville, Mississippi. Lebby goes way back with Oklahoma coach Brent Venables, even before the Sooners coach hired Lebby as Oklahoma's offensive coordinator — a position he held from 2022-23 before being hired by Mississippi State. Lebby signed with the Sooners as an offensive lineman in 2002, but an injury ended his career prematurely and he served as a student assistant with the program through 2006, which overlapped with Venables' early stint as Oklahoma's defensive coordinator. REQUIRED READING: How Bob Stoops knew Jeff Lebby could coach, even as an Oklahoma freshman | Exclusive The 42-year-old coach hangs his hat on explosive offense, which has been the case this season for the Bulldogs (when first-year starter Kamario Taylor has been healthy). His offenses at Oklahoma were also prolific. The Sooners, on the other hand, can't say the same since Lebby parted from the program. Their offense has been one of the worst in Power Four since Lebby left, and there's a chance they're looking for their third offensive coordinator in four seasons
