In their recent game against the Tar Heels, despite being ranked higher, the Sooners fell short with 69 points compared to their opponents' 81. Their field goal percentage was moderate at 40 percent and they struggled from beyond the arc with a three-point shooting percentage of just 30 percent. Turnovers were also an issue as they gave up possession 18 times.


However, looking back at another recent game against Green Bay's Phoenix, Oklahoma showcased what they are capable of when things click. They put up an impressive performance with an 81-point game and a strong field goal percentage of nearly 52 percent. Their two-point shooting was particularly effective at over 62 percent accuracy. Moreover, they capitalized on turnovers by scoring 27 points off them.


Against Arkansas' Razorbacks in Tulsa, the Sooners secured a win with a scoreline of 79-70. They demonstrated efficiency in shooting with over half of their field goals made and maintained good discipline by committing fewer turnovers than previous games.


The venue for this upcoming match may influence gameplay as well; playing away from home always brings its own set of challenges. The Bramlage Coliseum is known for its energetic atmosphere which could energize or intimidate visiting teams.


The scheduled date for this exciting matchup is January 31st at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan, KS. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN+ starting from one o'clock AM UTC (January 30th local time).
