Week 5





The Baylor Bears defeated the Sooners 70-62 Saturday in Norman.

Despite outrebounding Baylor 38-30 and committing seven fewer turnovers than the Bears (17-10 OU still fell. The loss continues a six-game losing streak for the Sooners.

Baylor beat OU earlier this year in Waco, Texas, but this was the Bears' first win in Norman since Dec. 6, 1977. It had lost 14 straight at Lloyd Noble Center.

"It’s amazing when you look at our percentages shooting the basketball that we were actually in this game and had a chance to win late," said head coach Jeff Capel. "We got good looks when we executed, but it was just one of those afternoons where we couldn’t make shots."

OU takes on No. 21 Texas Monday at 8 p.m. in Austin.
