Final: Oklahoma 71, K-State 69

Maybe Bruce Weber should explore the possibility of recruiting more transfers from Mizzou.

OK, this is what you’re going to get when you let me write the recap, but seriously, Mark Smith was unbelievable Saturday night in Norman. Sadly, another miserable start and just not enough defense or rebounding cost Kansas State in its Big 12 opener, a 71-69 loss to the Sooners, who were missing their best player.

Smith did absolutely everything for the Cats on the offensive end, totaling a career-high 25 points and 16 rebounds by attacking the basket and knocking down shots from outside.
