OKLAHOMA SOONERS FACTS:
Location: Norman, Oklahoma
Stadium: Lloyd Noble Center
Conference: Big 12 Conference
Rivals: Oklahoma State Cowboys
Mascot: Sooner Schooner

The Oklahoma Sooners men's basketball team is a perennial competitor in the Big 12.  The team rose to prominence under head coach Billy Tubbs and college stars Wayman Tisdale and Mookie Blaylock in the 1980's.  Though Oklahoma has never captured an NCAA Championship, they have won plenty of Big 12 tournaments and are second in most tournament wins without a championship behind Illinois.

The Sooners play hoops at the Lloyd Noble Center, or the "house that Alvan built."  Alvan Adams was a star forward for the Sooners in the 1970's, whose presence was felt in the call for an updated basketball arena to replace the aging OU Field House.  OU basketball thrives in this modern facility, and games consistently pack the house, especially when rivals OSU Cowboys are in town.  Make sure to come out and support these "Boomer Sooners!"
