Oklahoma is 2 games out of 1st midway through the Big 12 slate. It’s also just 2 up on last place. The Sooners can make a move in that logjam tonight vs. No. 21 BYU — and strengthen their NCAA Tournament resume with a major Q1 win — but it won’t be easy https://t.co/RweYufAnXZ https://t.co/9ySalGy4FC

NEW: Texas has nine regular-season games left and a manageable resume as it slogs towards the NCAA Tournament. A win tomorrow night vs. Iowa State would be big, but a loss to West Virginia Saturday would also be big, albeit for the wrong reason. MORE: https://t.co/pKE9ZxMk3W
