Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3372817, member: 5798"] It's been said that the best indicator of FUTURE behavior is PAST behavior. Let's look at the unranked Sooner's (7-4) last 5 games. [URL='https://www.masseyratings.com/cbw/ncaa-d1/ratings']Massey currently ranks OU at #69. [/URL][URL='https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/team/_/id/201/oklahoma-sooners']OU is 3-2 in their last 5 games. [/URL]They're on a 3 game win streak with home court wins over Drake, Sam Houston State and LSU (#25 at the time). Their two losses were to unranked @ Western Kentucky (74-63) and @ Wichita State (88-83). Their other two losses were to Missouri State (96-90) and @ Houston (85-69). UConn will be their biggest/toughest game thus far. They've only played 1 school that could be classified as a "major", #25 LSU that they beat 90-62. Number 2 UConn is considerably better than LSU, and I expect will present challenges to the Sooners that the Tigers did not. Another consideration for this game is that it's "get-a-way" day for all the players. Everyone of them will be heading directly to the airport (bags already packed) immediately after the game to fly home for the Christmas holiday break. Hopefully every player will be able to put the thought of going home on the back burner for the duration of the game, and concentrate on the business at hand. I also like UConn in this game. I think the final score (MOV) will be determined by the Huskies play in the first half. IF UConn jumps out to an early 20+ point halftime lead, the bench may get more playing time in the second half, as opposed to UConn being behind, or holding on to a single digit lead. That being said, I like UConn by 32 (thanks BobbyJ), 97-65. Go Huskies. :) [/QUOTE]
