WBB Preview: at Oklahoma (Nov. 6)
WICHITA STATE at #23 OKLAHOMA Monday, Nov. 6 | Noon CT
Norman, Okla. | Lloyd Noble Center
TV: ESPN+ (Chad McKee and Dan Hughes)
Radio: KFH 97.5 FM/1240 AM with Steve Strain
SCOUTING THE SOONERS
No. 23 Oklahoma is coming off a 113-38 exhibition win over West Texas A&M after a 26-7 season in 2022-23, in which the Sooners made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, where the fell to No. 4-seed UCLA. Oklahoma was led by two newcomers, 5-7 Lexy Keys (Sr.), a transfer from Oklahoma State, and 5-10 Sahara Williams (Fr.), who put up 23 and 20 points, respectively.
The Sooners return their leading rebounders, 6-0 Sr. Skylar Vann, who was named to the Cheryl Miller Award Watch List, as well as 6-2 R-Sr. Liz Scott, who was named to the Lisa Leslie Award Watch List. Vann averaged 11.5 points and 6.9 rebounds per game, and Scott averaged 8.6 points and 6.2 rebounds per game a season ago.
Oklahoma lost its 2022-23 leading scoring Madi Williams, along with their second-highest point scorer, Ana Llanusa.
I guess this game is at noon since the OU men also open their season at home this evening.
I think a successful result for the Shocks would be keeping this game within 25 points.
The Shocks final game of last year was 56-90 loss to K-State in the WNIT in a game that was not nearly as close as the score indicates.
