Going to miss this. Boo my flight planning!

At this point we know our team but haven't played Sooners so thought I'd add the Sooners game notes. Sort of interesting as it relates to their teamwide talent for assists.

The Sooners are sharing the ball the best they have all season entering Saturday night. OU has posted 20+ assists in six of its last seven games and has risen to third nationally in APG (20.3). Starting point guard Nevaeh Tot has been the primary driver, leading the Big 12 with an A/TO Ratio of 2.9 since entering league play. Four different Sooners post 2.0 APG and Oklahoma boasts the nation's second-highest assist percentage (71%) as OU heads to Ames. - Soonersports.com

Jennie Baranczyk get her team up and ready - she’s beaten us with lesser teams which seem to have played harder. This is a winnable game which would go a long way to determining what kind of March we have.

We've done well at Hilton against Baranczyk/Okie. If we look at the last ten regular season games we are 7-3 with no losses at Hilton and two wins at Norman! We beat them last season in the BIG12 Tourney.

IMO this is nearly a must win game. Have to defend home turf. Going to require much better defense. We have to be the team hitting the big shots, not OU
Hope we don’t use the 20 second dribble, force pass or shot offense today
