Tramel: Baylor defense puts headlock on OU basketball

Alondes Williams made a fast-break layup after 2:42 of game clock had ticked off. OU was off zero on the scoreboard, after four fruitless possessions.

With 13:28 left in the first half, Victor Iwuakor made a short shot for the Sooners. Five possessions had come without a subsequent OU point.

In their first 10 possessions in Waco, the Sooners scored just once and trailed second-ranked Baylor 16-2.
