Christian Post Report – Oklahoma Sooners forward Romero Osby (R) goes for a lay-up over Texas A&M Aggies center Keith Davis during the first half of the first round of the NCAA men’s Big 12 basketball tournament at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri, March 7, 2012.
The Sooners finished the season with a record of 23-10, compared to the Flyers 27-8 record. However, Oklahoma will be big favorites to win through tonight and claim a place in the Sweet 16.
Dayton will be looking to star forward Dyshawn Pierre to get the job done again for them tonight. He scored 20 points and 6 of 10 shooting during their win over Providence on Friday night, as well as sinking all five of his own free throws, and getting a block and a pair of assists.
How well the Flyers do tonight could depend on how well Pierre performs in today’s game, and you can be sure that the Oklahoma players will be closing him down fast and trying to blunt his effectiveness in the game.
Meanwhile, for the Sooners, forward TaShawn Thomas posted 18 points and four blocks in Oklahoma’s Second Round win over Albany. Through his 32 minutes on court he managed to post five rebounds, two assists and a steal.
The Flyers will be desperate to win here tonight to make it through to the Sweet 16. They are on the verge of a record-breaking season. They have so far claimed 27 wins for the first time since the 2008-2009 season, and their program record is just one away at 28 wins, which was recorded all the way back to 1952.
