Blair fouls out, but it probably improves OU's free throw shooting. Neal is in.

Capel's post game comments:

Good to get a win. Thought we did good stuff, need to do a few things better, but it's good to get a win.

I thought we were real active in the first half, forcing 15 turnovers we only had 7. Second half we had 10 they have 5 turnovers.

It was very sloppy, Of the 17 turnovers, 12-14 were unforced.

We played mostly man because they cut to the basket real good. We played some 1-3-1 at the end.

I thought our defense was active, held them to under 40% shooting, 3 charges.

We'll continue to work and get better.

Free throws were really good. We need to quit giving up offensive boards, Blair stepped up and made free throws.

I'm sure I missed some but this was as fast as I could type and listen at the same time.

You're right, I wrote that when the game was still going on. I will enjoy this victory tonight.

Thanks to the guys who provided updates during the game, much appreciated.
