Mike Leach was the offensive coordinator of the 1999 Oklahoma Sooners football team. He was in his first season at Oklahoma, and he was responsible for one of the most improved offenses in college football history.
Leach's offensive philosophy was simple: pass the ball a lot. He was known for his "air raid" offense, which relied on short, quick passes to spread out the defense and create mismatches. Leach's offense was also known for its high tempo and its ability to score points quickly.
The Sooners' offense was led by quarterback Josh Heupel, who threw for 2,894 yards and 22 touchdowns. Heupel was also a good runner, and he rushed for 319 yards and six touchdowns. The Sooners also had a strong running game, led by running back Quentin Griffin, who rushed for 1,216 yards and 10 touchdowns.
The Sooners' biggest win of the season came in the Bedlam Series, where they defeated the Oklahoma State Cowboys 38-25. The Sooners' victory over Oklahoma State gave them a 7-5 record and a bowl victory.
The 1999 Oklahoma Sooners were a solid team, but they were not one of the best teams in school history. The Sooners finished the season ranked 34th in the country.
