Sooners Drop To #25 In Latest AP Men's Basketball Poll

 Mom and baby are home from the hospital and resting comfortably. Now we'll resume regular posting. Thanks to everyone who contributed the FanPosts and comments that have kept the site going.

 Last Saturday was a horrible day for Sooner athletics as the football team and men's basketball teams took it on the chin while playing on the road. Since Saturday afternoon the discussion has pretty much been focused the football team. However, the ramifications for the basketball team losing at VCU was a drop from 17 to 25 in the AP Poll.

Willie Warren's cold night from the floor (3-14) caused the offense to be stagnant and despite Tony Crocker's 19 and Tiny Gallon's 15 points there just wasn't enough offense to keep OU in the game.
