Verhulst and Chavez Ignite No. 10 Oklahoma's Dominant 85-58 Upset Over Texas A&M—What Fueled Their Unstoppable Surge?

In a commanding display of precision and power, No. 10 Oklahoma surged to an emphatic 85-58 triumph over Texas A&M on Thursday night in Norman. Payton Verhulst led the charge with a solid 16 points, while Aaliyah Chavez chipped in a strong 14, showcasing the Sooners’ offensive depth. Raegan Beers and Sahara Williams weren’t far behind, each contributing 12 points as Oklahoma drained an impressive 12 of 23 attempts from beyond the arc. This victory marks Oklahoma’s third consecutive win — a streak ignited by an electrifying overtime victory against then-No. 2 South Carolina. With a weekend showdown looming against No. 4 Texas, the Sooners are making a statement that’s hard to ignore. Meanwhile, Texas A&M, struggling through a tough stretch with five losses in a row, found themselves overwhelmed despite a solid effort by Lauren Ware, who netted 15 points. Oklahoma’s new athletic director, Roger Denny, even energized the crowd mid-game, urging fans to keep the fire burning for coach Jennie Baranczyk’s squad. The Sooners’ tactical execution, highlighted by forcing turnovers and locking down shooting percentages in the second quarter, carved out a lead that grew insurmountable by the third. This matchup wasn’t just a win; it was an emphatic declaration that Oklahoma’s campaign in the Southeastern Conference is ready to roar louder than ever. LEARN MORE
