The Sooners are undefeated this season, but are coming off their worst performance offensively when they mustered a mere 65 points. Preseason All-American Buddy Hield struggled for the first time this season in the game against Wisconsin as he shot just 5-of-16 with 12 points. Oklahoma’s defense has ensured that Hield does not always need to score 25-plus points, as the Sooners are holding teams to just 61.3 points per game this season.
If there is a game for Hield to bounce-back, it will be against the Bears. Central Arkansas has allowed an average of 85 points per game while allowing opponents to shoot 52.9 percent.
