KANSAS AT OKLAHOMA;
USA;NCCA BASKET BALL 2016;
OKLAHOMA;Kansas shows there’s good reason to expect 12th Big 12 title in a row. Buddy Hield simply doesn’t miss jump shots or free throws.At least not normally.But Kansas is not a normal Big 12 opponent. Not this time of year. Not when the Big 12 race is heating up.So, though Oklahoma is the best three-point shooting team in the nation, the third-ranked Sooners started their game against No. 6 Kansas on Saturday afternoon 0-for-9 from beyond the arc. And though Hield is the frontrunner to win the national player of the year, he wasn’t even the best guard on the court during Saturday’s marquee matchup. That distinction went to Kansas’ Devonte Graham, who stifled Hield for the most part defensively while scoring 27 points to lead all scorers.The Jayhawks won 76-72 to sweep the Sooners in the regular season. But more important, it was a reminder, once again, why Kansas is poised to win its 12th consecutive Big 12 regular season title.
