Wichita State barely had time to breathe before the Sooners had posted 14 runs on the board. After plating three runs in the first inning, Oklahoma sent twelve batters to the plate, and scored eight of them, to blow the game wide open and allow Pete Hughes young squad to coast with an 11-0 lead.
Former OU quarterback Cody Thomas blasted his third home run of the season to lead off the fourth and was followed up by RBI base hits from Steele Walker and Jack Flansburg to push their lead to 14-0 in front of Wichita State's home crowd at Eck Stadium.
