The Oklahoma Sooners have rattled off four-straight wins since their upset loss to Kansas State. They’ve beaten Texas and Baylor who were each ranked No. 9 in the country at the time the Sooners picked up the win.
For their efforts, the 20-3 Sooners, who sit tied with Iowa State for first place in the Big 12, the Sooners moved up to No. 15 in the latest USA TODAY Sports Women’s Basketball Coaches Poll.
Oklahoma picked up dramatic wins over Baylor and West Virginia in the last week led by Madi Williams who picked up Big 12 Player of the Week honors. Williams averaged 21.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per game in the Sooners one-possession wins over the Bears and Mountaineers.
Oklahoma still sits four spots back of Baylor and six spots behind Iowa State who is No. 9 and the highest-rated team in the Big 12. Oklahoma takes on the No. 16 Texas Longhorns on Saturday in Austin.
