Bedlam basketball doubleheader coming to Paycom Center

What’s better than one Bedlam basketball showdown in Oklahoma City? How about a second one on the same day? Check and check.
OU and Oklahoma State men’s and women’s basketball teams will meet at the Paycom Center on Dec. 13 (Saturday) in a doubleheader.
Fans can attend both games with a single ticket. Oklahoma season ticket holders will receive an email with pre-sale details, and OU students will get ticket information after the start of the fall semester.
Last season, head coach Porter Moser and the OU men’s team defeated Oklahoma State 80-65 at Paycom Center on Dec. 14. The Sooners lead the all-time men’s series 144-106 and have won the last three meetings. Moser was once 1-4 in Bedlam and is now 4-4.

The OU women’s program holds a 69-47 Bedlam series advantage and has won six straight against the Cowgirls under head coach Jennie Baranczyk, including a 91-56 game in Norman on Feb. 24, 2024.
“It was an incredible experience for Oklahoma City to fill the arena with both OSU and OU fans in 2024,” said Paycom Center general manager Chris Semrau. “We are honored to not only continue to host the Bedlam tradition but also expand it by adding the women’s game.”
The in-state rivals have met at least once every season in men’s basketball since 1927-28. The women’s programs squared off annually from 1975 through 2024.
General public tickets go on sale through Ticketmaster on Friday, Aug. 1, at 10 a.m. CT.
Game times will be announced at a later date.
Expectations are high for both Baranczyk and Moser to keep the continued success of the OU basketball programs. Either through recruiting or the transfer portal (or both), it should be a fun season coming up at the Lloyd Noble Center. Both made their respective NCAA tournament last season.
