Nation’s best offense guiding Texas Wesleyan to NAIA playoffs

An explosive Texas Wesleyan offense isn’t anything new under offensive coordinator Fran Johnson. After all, the Rams entered the 2024 season with an offense that’s produced between 42-45 points per game for three consecutive seasons. But the 2024 Rams offense is producing numbers rarely seen in college football.

The Rams offense averages 59.9 points per game, the highest scoring average in college football this season. This would set a new NAIA record for most points per game, breaking the one held by Morningside (Iowa) in 2015 with 58.9 per contest. However, Texas Wesleyan isn’t guaranteed to finish with the highest-scoring offense in the country because the Rams made program history with their first outright Sooner Athletic Conference title and a bid to their first NAIA playoff appearance.
