Oklahoma basketball made a g-i-a-n-t leap in this week’s national rankings, all the way into the top-10 at No. 9.
The Sooners (11-4, 6-3) played six teams ranked in the top 10 in the Associated Press Top 25 during January, the first team to do that since 1974 and one of only three teams to have played that many top-10 teams in the same month in more than half a century.
