OU vs. Creighton Preview

OU WBB (8-2) heads to Omaha, Neb Sunday to take on the Creighton Bluejays. Tip off is scheduled for 2:00 CST. The Bluejays are 5-3 and playing their third straight Big 12 opponent; they lost at Nebraska 69-56 and lost at Kansas 56-77. The Sooners own a 2-0 record between the two teams, but both came from Norman.

Four of OU's starters average double figures: Abi Olajuwan (12.5), Amanda Thompson (10.4), Nyeshia Stevenson (13.8), and Danielle Robinson leads the team with 16.1. Since starting in place of Whitney Hand, Carlee Roethlisberger has averaged 12.0 ppg.

Three point defense will be key as the Sooners are 11th in the Big 12 in that category, and the Bluejays average nearly 9 three pointers a game.
