How's everyone feeling about Saturdays trip to Norman? Have only watched OU a few times but I haven't been real impressed. From a pure talent view they seem to be the least talented team in the league. Have to find a way to contain Sherfield as he's by far their best player. Groves can present some issues for our bigs as he can drag them away from the post out to the 3 pt line. Limited the TOs, limited OU to one shot each possession and I think the Bears win.

First impression is they're somebody we should beat on paper regardless of where the game is played (and OU doesn't generally have that much of a home crowd advantage) but they're still a B12 opponent in a conference where anybody is capable of beating any other conference member on any given day. Still gotta bring the "A" game and if we don't it could easily turn into a loss.

I'm expecting a close one. They've lost a lot of very very tight games this year, with last night's blowout in the second half @ Ok State the exception.

We should beat OU. However, if we are already thinking about KU on Monday, we will get beat. There are zero nights off in the Big 12 this year.

Oklahoma has been within 6 of every conference opponent. Should be a tight game.

Drew and the staff need to watch the second half of the OU/OSU game because OSU held him to 0 points in the second half.

OU plays good team defense. But their bigs are not athletic and cannot protect the rim.

Outside of Sherfiels they're not a great three point shooting team.

If we play like we have been the last three we win by 10.

They were probably hosting a rodeo there the next morning.

Last Baylor game in Norman, a 70ish old woman called a group of people in Baylor gear, "motherf---ers.'

Among other names. Let me take this opportunity to say thank you, Oklahoma, I'll always have that memory.

I almost hate to lose our conference affiliation with fans that paid $16.99 for a discounted "OU" t-shirt at Riverwind Casino.

Trust me..as someone who spent 4 years in the late 80s there...that ain't the HOT coliseum..

Seeing that the seats are red..and I don't think Conoco has ever been big in Texas or a sponsor..that's Lloyd Noble Arena ..

Fyi that's Jan 20, 2007..Curtis Jerrels led us with 15 points..Aaron Bruce chipped in 14.

I remember we had some issues with Groves last year, some of it comical. They have talent, but we should be able to beat them. Then again, I thought that about the 3 losses too.

The good news is that we are in a winning streak and ard clearly playing better than a few weeks ago. It's really nice to see Bridges be more if a contributor & make more shots.

Why? How relevant is a game that long ago? Does OU have even a single coach or staffer from then?

Baylor's terrible past makes the recent successes that much sweeter but that's all. MBB has 2 recent conference titles & a natty. We celebrate those accomplishments & hope to remain competitive going forward.

Oklahoma is due for a signature Big 12 win this season and came close to doing it three times already. They're a solid 3pt% defense, which could be problematic.

Nonetheless, I think we win a close game in Norman

Any win in this conference is huge, and this year I consider any road win an upset.

I'm surprised they were able to get a building that size into Norman and still get the wheels off.

Given there's an Oklahoma Gas & Electric (OG&E) sign at the bottom of the scoreboard … kinda doubt it's HOT.

Someone check when they go in to confirm the wheels aren't still on ...

Amazing how baylor has dominated so many of these big 12 teams for so long. Literally making teams go find another conference.

The last arena I ever saw wheels in was the HOT dressing rooms!
