NCAAB: Oklahoma @ Northwestern - Friday 9 pm ET

TV: BTN, DTV 610

The Pick: Oklahoma +3

Without Trae Young, this Oklahoma team is totally different than the 2017-18 iteration. Ken Pomeroy ranks the Sooners’ defense at eighth nationally (85th last year). Creighton, owner of the country’s 14th most efficient offense, managed just 0.9 points per possession in Oklahoma’s 83-70 win on Tuesday. Northwestern nearly knocked off Michigan at home a few weeks ago, so don’t discount the Wildcats and their 30th ranked defense. If they can slow the pace, they’ll have a shot. But Oklahoma has been the better team with better results to date.
