Oklahoma Postgame Notes

Dec. 3, 2007

• Sophomore guard Tony Crocker scored a career-high 24 points (his previous high was 19 last year versus Villanova) and tied a career high with nine rebounds. He scored 20 first-half points with the help of 6-for-7 3-point shooting. He did not attempt a 3-pointer after halftime.

• Crocker made his first four 3-point attempts. Sunday's game was his third this year of making at least four 3-pointers.

• Crocker entered the game shooting .500 from the field and .458 from 3-point range. He is now shooting .542 and .548, respectively, on the year.

• Oklahoma's 90 points marked its most in a true road game since Feb. 17, 1996, a 119-88 win at Colorado.

• OU shot .545 from the field, marking the fourth time in eight games it has posted a figure above .500.

• The Sooners' 50 rebounds were a season high (previous high was 44 versus Alcorn State), as were their 18 offensive boards and their 17-board advantage (TCU entered the game averaging 47 rebounds but finished with 33).

• Omar Leary, who entered the game with 10 assists on the year, racked up eight against the Horned Frogs against two turnovers. He added seven points and two steals.

• Austin Johnson, who finished with a career-high eight rebounds, scored 11 of his 13 points in the second half when he was 3-for-3 from 3-point distance. The junior has made six treys over the last two games.

• Junior Taylor Griffin registered a career-high four blocked shots in 19 minutes of action off the bench.

• Freshman Blake Griffin played 22 minutes and finished with 15 points, three boards, three assists and two steals. Four of his seven field goals were dunks.

• For the first time this year, Oklahoma turned the ball over more than its opponent. The Sooners had 17 turnovers to TCU's 11. OU's 24 assists, however, were a season high by four.

• OU canned 12 3-pointers (one shy of a season high) on 23 attempts. It shot better from 3-point range (.522) than it did from the free throw line (.462).

• Oklahoma led by as many as 37 points (90-53), but TCU scored the game's final 13 points to make the final margin 24.
