Gameday Thread: No. 21 Baylor at No. 23 Oklahoma

February 14, 2024

WACO, Texas – The No. 21 Baylor women’s basketball team plays is second-straight game against a ranked opponent when it travels to face No. 23 Oklahoma on Wednesday night at the Lloyd Noble Center.

Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. and the game is available for streaming via the Big 12 Now on ESPN+.  A live radio broadcast will be available on ESPN Central Texas (1660 AM/92.3 FM) and live in-game updates will be provided via Twitter and live stats.

STARTING FIVE

Sophomore Darianna Littlepage-Buggs averaged a double-double (15 pts, 11 reb) last week after posting back-to-back double-doubles at BYU and against No. 22 West Virginia.

Baylor picked up its conference-leading fifth top-25 win of the season on Saturday afternoon, besting the Mountaineers, 65-58.

Wednesday’s contest against No. 23 Oklahoma marks the eighth game against a ranked opponent for the Bears. Baylor is 5-2 against teams in the top-25 this year.

The Sooners and the Bears rank first and second, respectively, in the Big 12 in assists per game at 20.4 and 19.6 assists per contest, respectively.

Senior Sarah Andrews has 218 career 3-pointers and needs 43 more to break Odyssey Sim’s record of 258. The senior guard has hit at least one from range in all but two contests this season.

SCOUTING THE SERIES WITH OKLAHOMA

Baylor holds the slim 34-28 advantage in the all-time series with Oklahoma and the Bears are 16-12 in Norman. The Bears and the Sooners split the series last season as each team picked up a road win. In Baylor’s win in Norman on Jan. 3, 2023, Sarah Andrews dropped a career-high 30 points against the then-No. 17 Sooners, going 5-of-12 from behind the 3-point arc and a career-best 9-for-11 from the free throw line. Oklahoma has won three of the last five meetings between the two programs, breaking a 12-game win streak by the Bears during the 2021-22 season.

we just chucked up our 2nd layup that has gone over the top of the backboard. So sloppy

I wish we would quit settling for wild threes. We can play with OU. Drive and take those mid-range jumpers. We are playing well. Buggs has to start hitting for us to win this one. She has missed several open shots.
Got Mulk?

She does a good job running the offense. We need to shoot a little better. But still, much better effort so far than in BYU. Let's go Bears!

Too many turnovers in the last 2 minutes and out rebounded by 10. Ugh.

Bigs on the bench, and Fritz, probably the best defender on the team sitting?

Has CNC given a reason why Fritz is no longer playing? We went from her bragging on her 2 deep bench to an 8 person rotation.

Nothing!!

Started every game last year, lead the team in blocks! Iowa State Wins the Big 12 Championship, All BIG12 Freshman Team, BIG12 All Academic !! No Clue!! Held her own with Caitlin Clark, too! I think her lowest scoring output last year

No defense! Leaving shooters wide open and letting them get whatever they want. Another press conference of Nicki saying "we didn't get stops." Yeah we all know by now.
Got Mulk?
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I thought she was a great transfer but she for some reason doesn't seem to fit into CNC's plans. Suprising and frustrating.
