It didn’t go great for the Sooners, who were locked in a battle against the Kansas City Roos on Tuesday night at the Lloyd Noble Center.
The Roos came to play, keeping the game close through the first 20 minutes, taking the Sooners into halftime tied at 27 apiece.
And then Grant Sherfield happened.
The Sooners’ starting point guard went off in the second half, scoring 22 of his 24 points on the night to help Oklahoma erupt for a 48-point second half. Sherfield was 6 of 10 from the field and 5 of 6 from three-point range.
The Sooners had three other players score in double figures on a night where they shot 57.8% from the field and 41.2% from three.
It was a key second half for Oklahoma, who the tournament selection committee would have looked down upon had the Sooners struggled to beat the Roos. Taking a 27-all game at halftime and turning it into a 22-point win looks a whole lot different come selection time.
