PITTSBURGH -- As soon as Oklahoma found out it had made the NCAA tournament, the message became clear: This is a new season.
The Sooners lost eight of their final 10 games entering their first round game against Rhode Island on Thursday, but Trae Young said there is no need to focus on any of that.
"I count the regular season as last season," Young said during the Sooners' press conference Wednesday. "We're not worried about it. Everybody is 0-0 now. Everybody in this field is capable of winning games. So, we have got to come in with the mindset of we're going to compete hard on both ends for 40 minutes, and hopefully get back to the way we were to start the season, and if we do that, we'll be OK.
