Oklahoma Basketball: What We Learned From the Baylor Battle Scars

We’re talking about the 9-17 Sooners and the No. 9-ranked Baylor Bears at Baylor in a game that meant much more to Baylor than it did to Oklahoma. The Sooners hung with the Bears for a large portion of the second stanza, but finally succumbed to the more experienced, more talented Baylor team, 60-54.

At the very least, Oklahoma played much better on Tuesday night in Waco than it did in the earlier contest between the two teams on the Sooners’ home floor, won by Baylor 76-50 in runaway fashion.

The Bears led by as many as 15 points early in the first half, and were up by 14 in the first five minutes after intermission.
