How to watch, key players for No. 24 Oklahoma Sooners vs. UCF Knights
The Oklahoma Sooners got a huge must-win game on the road against the Kansas State Wildcats. The Sooners need to continue that momentum as they stay on the road looking for another road conference win.
This time, they take on the UCF Knights, who are 12-8 (3-5, Big 12). UCF is coming off two straight losses to close the month of January. Most recently, they failed to hold on the second half at home against Baylor.
UCF is a team that can beat just about anyone on any given night, as just about every Big 12 team can do. But they’ve struggled with consistency.
One night, they can beat Kansas, but the next night, they might get blown out by Kansas State. So, the Sooners are going to have to come out and let their defense lead the way like they did in their win Tuesday against Kansas State.
So, let’s take a look at some key players and how you can watch the game.
