Finally a pretty good game on national television. The last time Oklahoma lost in the regular season it was to Ohio State. After the Buckeyes were trounced recently by LSU, many may not have given OSU much of a chance to repeat last season's victory over OU. They would have been wrong as the Buckeyes downed the Sooners 74-67.

Courtney Paris recorded another double double (her 38th) with 22 points and 13 boards, but Jessica Davenport made her work for it. Davenport and Star Allen did a solid job on the inside on both ends of the floor and the Buckeye guards, especially Brandie Hoskins and Marscilla Packer, continued to attack the basket.

The Sooners made a nice run in the second half and even took the lead, but foul trouble for Courtney and the inability to finish plays in the closing minutes cost them the game.

Jenni Carlson of newsok.com wonders if the results would have been different for the Sooners if Sherri Coale had used the bench more, especially in the final minutes of the game.

While the Sooners are disappointed their chances for an undefeated season are over, they also know it's still early. Coach Coale: “We would have loved to have won this game, obviously, and I feel like we can play better than we did tonight. But it’s not the end of the world."

For the Buckeyes, Coach Foster thinks his team "just got back to fundamental basketball. Basketball today really is a series of mini-games. The clock keeps getting stopped."
