Opponent Preview: 3-seed Oklahoma
While Reagan Beers is a tough matchup, the Sooners' turnover problem leaves them vulnerable to a suffocating UConn defense.
UConn cruised through the opening two games of its tournament with an average margin of victory of 51.5 points — the best of any team in the tournament. Now, 2,700 miles from Storrs in Spokane, Washington for the regional rounds, things will get a bit more challenging for the Huskies.
UConn will face the 3-seed Oklahoma in the Sweet Sixteen on Saturday evening. The Sooners also won both of their tournament games so far comfortably, defeating 14-seed Florida Gulf Coast in the opening round and then routing 6-seed Iowa in the round of 32.
