Related Topics: Oklahoma, Welsh-Ryan Arena

Northwestern and Oklahoma will play in Norman next season as part of a home-and-home series, according to FanRag sports. The return leg will be played in Evanston during the 2018-2019 season, after the $110 million renovation to Welsh-Ryan Arena is complete.

After a Final Four appearance last season, the Sooners have taken a step back this season, going 11-19 overall (5-13 Big 12) without Buddy Hield and Isaiah Cousins. The Sooners will lose leading-scorer Jordan Woodard after this season, but they’ll also add one of the best high school point guards in the country next season in Trae Young.
