The Sooners dominated Vanderbilt in the paint, outscoring the Commodores 52-30, and converted 22 Vandy turnovers into the same number of points as Oklahoma broke a two-game losing streak in its challenge series with teams from the Southeastern Conference and upped its season record to 15-5.
The 15 Sooner wins is just three games shy of OU’s win total all of last season.
In addition to running red hot on the offensive end, the OU victory margin was a much a factor of playing tough defense as knocking down baskets and unselfish offense. The Sooner held Vanderbilt to 36.
