The Clones are so much better than they were when they opened conference play in Norman 2 months ago. I think they come out energized and get on top of OU in the first half like they did against WVU. Then it will be interesting to see if they can grab them by the throat and put them away in the 2nd half, or if they let OU hang around down the stretch. A good start to finish ass kicking would be nice.

And just looked as I couldn't remember but ISU had the lead for a bit inside of 5 minutes.

No idea what happens tonight but having a team that can have their worst night statistically and still have a chance is quite a deal.
That game basically came down to two things:

OU made 10 threes and ISU made 3.

And OU is below average nationally in turnover rate and we only forced 10 turnovers - TCU at home and @Houston are the only games we've forced fewer. Ironically those 2 games are rematches of games where we forced them into a season high in turnovers.

OU's season high in turnovers is 18 - in a loss to UNC and a win over WVU. I think we force more than that tonight.

From my memory, we struggled for most of the first 30 minutes, and then fought our way to even or slightly ahead fairly late, and OU just closed out hard.

Uncool, men and women are both on ESPN+ at same time. Hope I don't have an issue with multiple logins on two devices. Have to pick which team gets the big TV and who gets the laptop
