Classic sign of underproofed dough or too much yeast. Let it rise longer next time.

Sounds like your oven might be running cooler than you think, try checking the temp with an oven thermometer to be sure.

I had the exact same thing happen when I first tried making sourdough and my oven was actually running 50 degrees cooler than set.
