NORMAN — Skip Johnson is trying to stay out of his team’s way this week.
His Oklahoma Sooners (36-22) have fully bought into what he’s preached all season long and is finally putting it all together following a massive upset over No. 2 overall seed Georgia Tech in the NCAA baseball regional round. The Sooners battled back from behind four-plus runs to beat the Yellowjackets twice.
“They stopped trying and they started believing,” Johnson said Thursday before OU hit the road for the Lawrence Super Regional. “They thought they could, now they believe they can. You’ve just got to get out of their way, you take batting practice, you take ground ****** and do the stuff that fundamentally you need to keep doing.
“Hopefully it just keeps carrying over from last week.”
