It literally has been an up-and-down season for the Oklahoma basketball program. The same team that was 12-1 on Dec. 30 has gone 6-12 since then.
As the announcement was made on the TBS “March Madness Selection Show” on Sunday, the OU men’s team, watching the broadcast live in Norman, instantly rose to their feet cheering, hugging and handing out high fives all around. One prominent figure, however, remained seated with his head buried in his hands. That person was Trae Young, who, in the moment, acted as if he didn’t even believe it
There are quite a few critics of the Sooners and the selection committee, however, who don’t agree that the Sooners should be in the tournament and don’t believe they will stick around very long when they get there.
