Oklahoma’s main man, Trae Young, vows the breakdowns that plagued the Sooners at K-State won’t happen again anytime soon. Those words are encouraging, but also a blinding flash of the obvious if OU wants to continue to win games and remain in contention for a potential Big 12 title.
The Sooners will have little margin for error in their next two outings: a rivalry matchup on the road with Oklahoma State on Saturday, followed by a showdown at Lloyd Noble Center on Tuesday with Big 12 leader and 13-time defending champion Kansas.
The Sooners won the first encounter with Oklahoma State by 20 points earlier this month, but that means little in a fiercely contested rivalry series as old as this one.
