Will the Oklahoma Sooners Outmaneuver the Kansas Jayhawks at Lloyd Noble Center?

As the Oklahoma Sooners prepare to host the Kansas Jayhawks at Lloyd Noble Center, fans are eager to see if their team can continue its recent performance trends. The Sooners have shown a mix of resilience and areas for improvement in their past games, which will be crucial factors in their upcoming clash.

In their last game against North Carolina Tar Heels, despite being outscored 81-69, the Sooners demonstrated a strong presence in rebounds with a total of 41 compared to Tar Heels' 34. However, turnovers were a concern as they recorded 18 compared to just nine by the Tar Heels. The team's field goal percentage stood at 40 percent and free throw accuracy was at 67 percent – numbers that would need an uptick for better results.

A previous home game saw a more favorable outcome for Oklahoma with an impressive win over Green Bay Phoenix where they scored 81 points and held Phoenix to just 47. Their field goal percentage was notably higher at 52 percent with an equally impressive two-point shooting rate of 62 percent. They also excelled in assists (18) and steals (12), indicating strong teamwork and defensive pressure.

Against Arkansas Razorbacks, Oklahoma secured another win scoring 79 points while allowing only 70. Their shooting remained consistent with over half of their field goals made (51 percent) and an even higher free throw accuracy rate than before (79 percent). Turnovers were slightly reduced but still present at fifteen.

The upcoming game promises to be intense as both teams bring their strengths onto the court. For Oklahoma fans, it will be essential for the team to maintain or improve upon their shooting percentages while addressing turnovers that have plagued them previously.

The match is scheduled on February 17th at Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, OK starting from nine o'clock Eastern Time. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN channel two hundred six.
