(Norman-AP) -- Oklahoma basketball coach Kelvin Sampson says the Sooners are still trying to figure out who they are.

A rule change this year limits physical contact, but Sampson is still counting on his defense to feed the offense.

Sampson says that did not happen last Saturday during a 60-to-55 loss to Ole Miss. He says the defense has to stop the other team's offense and create opportunities to score.

Oklahoma hosts North Texas on Saturday.
