Interesting stats for Tech. Their leading rebounder is Zach Smith with 5 per game. Their leading scorer is Devaungta Williams with 11 ppt. Robert Turner averages 8 ppt. They have seven other guys averaging between 4.6 and 6.8 ppg.

To me you beat these guys with sound defense and don't really focus on anyone in particular. They don't shoot particularly well. They have a team shooting percentage of 40.9% and three point percentage of 31.4%. Presumably those numbers are worse on the road. OU shoots 44% from the field and 33.6% from three point range. I would assume OU's numbers are better at home.

To me this is a must win for OU and they should win.

One other thing about Tech. They haven't won a game away from Lubbock this season. OU better not give them their first win away from Lubbock.

Heck yes it's a must win... if OU loses here the season is practically over.

That being said.... 99% chance of victory at home against these guys.
