Texas beat people by 18 per game on points in the paint.

---They outrebounded us, but we won points in the paint 24-22.
---It would have been more except that they finished with about five layups while we were shooting free throws.

TCU outshot their opponents and forced turnovers.

---They shot well. We shot better from both the field and three point line.
---They did force 20 turnovers to the 17 that we forced, but...
---It led to us shooting 18-22 from the free throw line. They were 5-8.

OSU had two dominant scorers: Martin and Donohoe.

---Neither scored in the first half.
---Martin did score six in the second half. Donohoe never scored.
---Among the leaders in rebounds, they had 11 between them.
---Donohoe was so hamstrung that she only shot four times. Manning blocked two of them.

We are dominating because we are able to take away what the other team does best. Now, if we can only do that against Baylor.
 
If someone said one month ago that OU had a legitimate chance of being 11-0 in conference games prior to the first matchup with Baylor in Waco, I would have called them delusional.

My, how things have changed!
