NORMAN, Okla. - The Oklahoma men's basketball team has been selected by ESPN to be the subject of multiple behind-the-scenes video features over the next few weeks, all the way through Selection Sunday (March 16).  The features will be shown on College GameDay, College GameNight and SportsCenter.

ESPN began shooting "all-access" coverage this week and was in Norman for Tuesday's 92-91 overtime thriller against Baylor.  The first OU segment is scheduled to air during Saturday's 10 a.m. CST College GameDay show.  College GameDay will broadcast from Memphis, Tenn., the site of Saturday night's No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup between Memphis and Tennessee.

The ESPN crew captured behind-the-scenes video and sound before, during and after OU's win against Baylor.  Head coach Jeff Capel also wore a microphone during the game.

ESPN is scheduled to make a return trip to Norman next week prior to the Sooners' road game Wednesday against Nebraska. 

Oklahoma is 18-8 overall this season and tied for fourth place in the Big 12 with a 6-5 league mark.
