NORMAN, Okla. -- The No. 23 Oklahoma Sooners won game one of Saturday's doubleheader, 3-0, at L. Dale Mitchell Park.  Stephen Porlier tossed the first complete game of his career with nine innings of four-hit ball.

The win improves OU's overall record to 25-11 and 5-5 in Big 12 play.  Nebraska was shut out for the second time this season and fell to 20-14 and 5-8.

The last time OU shut out Nebraska was on May 11, 1994.  The Sooners won that contest, 4-0, in Lincoln.

Ryan Mottern put OU on the board with a run-scoring double in the fourth inning.  The Sooners tagged on insurance runs in the sixth and eighth innings as Porlier struck out six batters and did not surrender a walk.
