The Kentucky Wildcats went on the road and delivered a massive victory over the Oklahoma Sooners, fueled by a career night from Georgia Amoore. The senior guard was nothing short of spectacular, dropping 43 points in a dominant performance that lifted Kentucky to a 95-86 win.

Amoore’s Record-Breaking Night

Amoore was unstoppable from start to finish, lighting up Oklahoma’s defense with 15-of-22 shooting from the field and 7-of-12 from beyond the arc. She also cashed in at the free-throw line, hitting 6-of-8 to cap off her career-high scoring effort.

Beyond her scoring, Amoore kept the offense flowing, dishing out eight assists while committing just two turnovers in an impressive 39-minute performance. It was the kind of night legends are made of—one that will surely be remembered by Wildcats fans for years to come.

Kentucky’s Supporting Cast Steps Up

While Amoore stole the show, Clara Strack played a key role in the win, contributing 19 points on an efficient 7-of-12 shooting. Dazia Lawrence added 14 points, knocking down three triples, and Amelia Hassett made her presence felt on the boards with six rebounds to go along with five points.

Off the bench, Clara Silva provided an efficient spark, scoring eight points in just 13 minutes while also registering two blocks.

Sooners’ Rally Falls Short

Despite Kentucky controlling most of the game and leading by as many as 17 points, Oklahoma refused to go away quietly. Sahara Williams put up a team-high 27 points, attacking the Wildcats’ defense and going a perfect 9-for-9 from the free-throw line. Raegan Beers added 18 points and 10 rebounds, recording a double-double, while Skylar Vann chipped in 11 points.

Oklahoma dominated the glass, out-rebounding Kentucky 50-34, including a staggering 18 offensive rebounds. However, their poor three-point shooting (6-of-29, 20.7%) and 18 turnovers proved too much to overcome.

Kentucky’s Efficiency Wins the Day

The Wildcats were lights out offensively, shooting 50.0% from the field and 41.2% from deep. Their ability to capitalize on Oklahoma’s mistakes was a difference-maker, as they scored 25 points off turnovers compared to just five for the Sooners.

Perhaps the most telling stat of the night? Kentucky never trailed. Amoore’s dominance set the tone early, and the Wildcats never let Oklahoma fully claw their way back.

What’s Next?

This win marks a statement victory for Kentucky, proving they can win tough games on the road against quality opponents. With Amoore playing at an elite level, the Wildcats look poised to make serious noise as the season progresses. They'll have that chance as next weekend will be number 5 LSU.

One thing is for sure: Georgia Amoore just put the basketball world on notice.
