Kansas is much improved from past teams. They have not played since 12/21 due to Covid cancellations/postponements.

Rough Q1 down 26-14. They killed us with high low passing in the post. And when we didn’t turn it over we missed the shot.

 

[Soonercuda]

We are short handed. Gregory, Lampkin, Svoboda, and Perkins all out. I assume Covid related.

 

[Soonercuda]

Down 39-37 at half. Came back from 16 down early in Q2. Taylor 11, Vann 10 and Madi 7

 

[Soonercuda]

We are up 54-48 after Q3. Taylor had a big quarter and is up to 21..4 3s for the game. Madi still at 7, need her to heat up to help put the game away.

82-68 win. Madi did have a big 4th and ended the game with 20. Taylor with 24. Good recovery after the bad start. Difference was 3 point shooting. We made 10-30, they were only 1-17. Good job by Liz as our only big today 8 points and 9 rebounds.

Nice win over a decent team on the road. This is the kind of game you have to win to make the NCAA Tournament.

Shout out to OU’s conditioning! The last few years, the conditioning took a lot of flack on this board, but we played at a very fast pace all game and still had a lot in the tank to have a big 4th quarter to put the game away. Granted, it helps that KU hadn’t played a game in 2.5 weeks.

Another shoutout to Vann for playing out of position all day and still finding a way to have a massive impact on the game.
