This win is unbelievably impressive for Oklahoma. To go on the road against a team that is one of the best in the Big 12 and an expected top-3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and win is simply enormous.

This game was easily one of the Sooners’ biggest tests the remainder of the season and they passed with flying colors. So many different players contributed to this win and this team continues to show they have the mental toughness to win close games.

Oklahoma was listed as a 3-seed if the NCAA Tournament started today by the committee, and this a step closer to maybe even rising up higher on their board. The importance of this win really can’t be overstated.
