This is a MUST WIN for our ladies. It'll be a good test going into conference play too. I say if we win, and by 10 or more that'll be a great sign, if we struggle and turn the ball over and barely win/lose I'll be very nervous going into B12 play, as all of the teams can win on any given night, IMO. We will see! I really think our freshmen Bigs developing consistent play will be key to our success down the line, that or Scott staying out of foul trouble and contributing consistently. If you look at it, this is only Scott's second fully healthy season, so last year she was essentially a freshman...I can see some improvement this year already!

Scott has turned into a beast defensively, and she's pretty good on offense too. You're right about the importance of her staying out of foul trouble. We're not nearly as stout when Liz is sitting on the bench in foul trouble.

Florida is 11-1 but unranked. Lost to 11-2 FSU and beat 7-4 Miami for their two quality wins.

I looked at Florida's results/roster and it appears they have some transfers, two of which have played in the B12. One is KK Deans from WVU, who we are very familiar with and vice versa. They seem to be athletic, and have height and apparently good at rebounding, so I'm sure this will be a big challenge to win, but I think we can/should win this one. It just depends on which OU team shows up!

21-9 after Q1. We struggled shooting but played really good defense and continued rebounding well.

 

[Soonercuda]

31-11 early in Q2 forces a Florida timeout. TRob with 4-5 shooting from 3 to get us the big lead.

 

[Soonercuda]

43-23 at half. Held Florida to 25% shooting and forced 13 turnovers. Rebounding lead of 30-20. Really good half.

 

[Soonercuda]

69-48 after Q3. TRob with 6-7 shooting from 3.

 

[Soonercuda]

95-79 final.

Smothering defense and lights out offense, a dominating game from start to finish of a 11-1 team that was clearly better than OU made them look.

Definitely fun if you’re a Sooner fan! BOOMER!

Yep. This team is skilled, deep and definitely fun to watch. Our lack of height may wind up hurting us some when we start playing Big 12 opponents twice a week, but it certainly had no noticeable effect last night against those UF trees.

That was the best defense this program has played in...... a decade?

If we keep that defensive effort up, that's a game changer.

This teams' run and gun approach makes it so enjoyable to watch. And they can play D when they did too.
Close to Billy Ball as we have seen at OU since the Tubbs era.
