The TCU program entered the day without a win against Oklahoma at the Lloyd Noble Center, and that didn’t change on Saturday The Oklahoma Sooners — and Brady Manek in particular — scorched the nets and made several winning plays against the TCU Horned Frogs. Oklahoma had some lucky bounces go their way, but they clearly out-executed TCU throughout the afternoon as the Frogs never found a rhythm en route to a 83-63 Sooner victory. The win puts the Sooners at 12-5 on the season and 3-2 in conference play.

Manek's milestone leads OU past TCU, 83-63. #YouBelongHere
Quick recap ➡️ https://t.co/WvBC7SQCzM pic.twitter.com/0rjX70sZJM
Brady Manek had a career day for the Sooners while also crossing the threshold of 1,000 career points. Everything was dropping for Manek and all the bounces seemingly went his way. A deflected pass that somehow lands perfectly in his hands? *knocks down a three pointer* Less than a second on the shot clock and he has to throw up something near the rim? *knocks down a three pointer*

Put the dog in the kennel.
