Oklahoma's second grand slam extended the lead to 13-1 againstNorthwestern. There is a time and a place for this.
The first game of the Women's College World Series will be played in Oklahoma City. One is that the No. 1 seed, a historic dynasty, is playing a plucky unseeded team.
It's Oklahoma vs Texas. ABC and the app.
One of the most dominant seasons in the history of the sport was put together by the 55-2 Oklahoma Sooners. Fans weren't booking hotel rooms in Oklahoma City when the Longhorns went 0-5 in February.
In June, the Longhorns will face the Sooners in the winner's brackets in Oklahoma after a win over UCLA.
The unthinkable happened on April 16 when Texas beat Oklahoma, ending the Sooners' 40-game winning streak. It wasn't a cure-all for Texas' season, as the Longhorns lost all three games in a series against Oklahoma State about a week later. In the Seattle Regional and the Fayetteville Super Regional, the Longhorns went on a tear, winning series against Washington and Arkansas.
It sounds familiar?
The Longhorns will play the defending champ Sooners on Saturday just 20 miles from their campus.
Before the Longhorns' first-round game against UCLA, a four-time All-American knew what to expect.
She said that the Longhorns' faithful were still rowdy in Arkansas and that she wasn't expecting much support from the OU fans. We will need that support. We are prepared.
The Longhorns' side of the story is not history's. Last season the Sooners won a national championship. This is the first time in four years that Texas has appeared in the World Championship Series. The last time the Longhorns and Sooners played in Oklahoma City, the Sooners ran-ruled the Longhorns 10-2.
Texas has a chance at a second win over OU. She has allowed just five runs in two starts against the Sooners this season, including three in a loss and two in a win.
Two of Oklahoma's biggest threats are hitless in 13 at-bats against the same pitcher. The Sooners were held to three hits or less just three times all season.
It was really attacking them with no fear. You have to trust that your best stuff will beat their best swings and keep the ball down for a team that hits a lot of long balls.
It was a remarkable start to the Red River Rivalry for Dolcini, who was facing the Sooners for the first time.
Mike White said that it's not always the best team that wins. On that day, we played better than they did. They had their top pitcher throw against us. We were able to score a big hit at the right time, and that's what you have to do when there's not much going on.
The machine that coach Gasso has built isn't needed by the Sooners. They came off a Game 1 showing that included the return of Bahl, who had been out with arm soreness.
Two pitchers have been crushing it and we need her. It's hard for teams to train for three different pitchers instead of two with the addition of Jordy.
Alo, the sport's all-time home run leader, says the Longhorns' loss earlier in the season was a big factor in the Sooners' run to this point.
Alo has played with many special teams. I've had my fair share since I've been here. This is the best team I've been on because of how complete we are and how close we are. I've never seen a staff like this before, and they just love to throw us out at practice, so I feel like that's what makes us good. Every day, just iron sharpens iron. After we lost to Texas, I think this team started to move in the right direction, and I've seen them handle it with grace and passion.
Texas and Oklahoma are on the verge of great things. The Texas women's tennis team upset Oklahoma two weeks ago to win the national championship.
Can the Texas softball team find a way to win again?
"Haley was able to put together one of the best games of her career, and that's the way to do it," White said earlier this week. Hopefully, we can do it again someday.
They got their chance now.
