Blake Griffin National Player of the Year
Posted on December 18, 2008 at 02:52 AM.
Blake average 22.5 points 8.5 rebounds 1.9 blocks while shooting 55% from the field and leading the Sooners to a 32-3 record making the Sweet 16. Blake will be entering the NBA draft and will be sorely missed by the Sooners for the 2009-2010 season.

The dream ends..........
Posted on December 18, 2008 at 02:36 AM.
With the game in hand 62-52 with 5 minutes remaining the top-ranked Sooners thought it would be nice to go cold (or get ripped off). The Florida St. Seminoles roared back to take a 70-68 lead with 30 seconds to play. Blake Griffin tied the game with a lay-up, but left 5.2 seconds on the clock, and that is all FSU guard Toney Douglas needed to drive the length of the court and pass off the Chris Singleton for a ridiculous three-point shot that was an inch from being blocked by Sooner forward Tony ...

Sooners enter Big 12 Tourney with 15-1 conference mark
Posted on December 17, 2008 at 12:11 AM.
Oklahoma just almost went perfect in the Big 12 with 15-1 conference mark. The last four games of the conference season were as follows:

Kansas 70-64
@Texas Tech 81-61
@Missouri 68-80
Oklahoma St. 74-55

It's never a good thing traveling to Missouri to play the Tigers, and yet again it proved too much for the number 1 ranked Sooners who came out flat and never led the Tigers as the Colombia crowd was crazy.

First quarter of conference play = 4-0 for OU
Posted on December 15, 2008 at 06:13 PM.
Oklahoma reeled off four straight conference wins to start the "real" season as they defeated K-State 79-70 at Manhattan. Next they took care of fifth rated Texas at Norman 71-63, followed by Texas A&M in College Station 68-59, and Nebraska in Norman 78-53. OU is currently top-rated in the land after a loss by North Carolina to jump the Sooners up to number one. The next four game stretch is brutal with Baylor at home, Oklahoma State in Stillwater, Iowa St. in Ames, and a rematch with Texas A&M ... Read More

Recap

The third ranked Sooners held off a scappy VCU team that just wouldn't go away. Eric Maynor kept getting his teammates involved, but Tony Crocker's shooting was too much for the Rams to overcome. The Sooners were down by 6 at the half, but rallied on Crocker's 33 points to win 87-83. Blake Griffin had 28 quiet points and 9 rebounds while O'mar Leary added 12 from the bench. The Sooners will travel to Houston to play the Rice Owls next.

Recap

For Blake Griffin, it was business as usual Saturday as the Sooners held off the fiesty Utah Runnin' Utes in a close 88-81 game that sent OU to 7-1 on the year and Utah to 3-5. Griffin had 28 points and 8 rebounds while Cade Davis added 13 points coming off the bench. Utah's Shaun Green had a monster game with 30 points and 7 boards, but it wasn't enough for the Utes. Next up for the Sooners is the VCU Rams after a six day break.

Recap
The Maine Black Bears came into Norman on Wednesday and never had a chance from the start. Freshman Sooner point guard Willie Warren continued to impress as he had 15 points to lead OU to a 80-60 victory. Oklahoma never trailed and sent the Black Bears back to Maine with a loss. Blake Griffin added 15 points as well, and the Sooners played a great defensive game. Jordan Cook led Maine with 15 points and 7 boards.
