Blake Griffin led OU with a game-high 20 points and 13 rebounds and was a dominant force on both ends of the floor. But OU struggled to get production from anyone else.

Tony Crocker added 11 points, but the Sooners hit just 32.8 percent (20-of-63) from the floor and were a woeful 4-of-23 from 3-point range.

“We got some great looks, we just didn’t knock them down inside; some shots right there at the 3-point line,” Capel said. “When you are playing against a really good team like Texas you have to be able to knock more of those down than we did.”

OU not being able to wasn’t a surprise. It failed to shoot better than 34 percent in all three meetings with Texas this season.

Of course, OU won’t have to worry about playing the Longhorns again unless it makes a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Texas will try to bolster its case for a No. 1 seed in the conference title game at 2 p.m. today.

The Sooners will also find out who their next opponent is today. The NCAA Tournament field will be announced a 5 p.m. OU is considered a lock for an at-large berth.

The only thing it could have done in Kansas City, Mo., was bolster its seed. It’s doubtful eking out a 54-49 victory over last-place Colorado and being trounced by the Longhorns did much for them.

Still, OU knows it has at least one more game to play.

“After not playing very well as a team (Friday) and then losing the way we did today, you know, it’s disappointing,” OU forward Taylor Griffin said. “But at this point in the season, you’ve got to move on quickly. If you don’t your next game could be your last. So, yet, it is disappointing. But, you know, we’ve still got a big opportunity coming up.”
