The Sooners look to be led by 6-foot-4 junior guard Buddy Hield (16 pts, 5.4 rebs, 2 asts, 1.2 stls per game). Hield is one of the top scorers in the country and has grown into a fine all-around player for OU. He’s gonna chuck it. Hield has already attempted 100 three pointers on the season (he’s made 38) and Texas will have to play him to fire often from deep as he’ll likely take in the 8-10 range from beyond the arc. Obviously, that’s been an issue for Texas already this season and how well they handle Hield from deep will go a long ways towards their chances in this one.

Starting five. OU’s starting five is as good as any in the country. Bolstered by the immediate eligibility of Houston transfer TaShawn Thomas, the Sooners have athleticism and scoring ability at all five positions from their first tier players. Woodard is a terrific point guard. Hield and Cousins can both score, rebound, pass and defend. And Spangler and Thomas can hit the boards and are dangerous around the basket. Against Baylor, OU’s starting five scored all but two of the Sooners’ points. It’s likely they’ll have to be just as dominant against Texas for OU to hope to come away from Austin with a win
