There isn’t a hotter team in collegiate softball than the Oklahoma Sooners at this point in the season. They have climbed to the top spot in the USA TODAY Sports Coaches poll. They are one of four teams in the top 25 that come from the Big 12 Conference.
The Sooners have won 12-straight games to begin the 2021 campaign. In the Miner Invitational in El Paso, Texas, OU allowed just two runs in four games while scoring 70 runs. They have allowed just 14 runs in the eight games that have followed that appearance in the season-opening tournament. In that same stretch, they scored 98 total, including a 33 run outburst against New Mexico. Their second game of the year with at least 29 runs in a game.
On Friday the Sooners will participate in the Courtyard Marriott Tournament in Norman when they face off against Missouri and Sam Houston State in a double-header. There is a lot of excitement about the top softball program in the country.
