Justin Martinez, The Oklahoman: "Get ready for an elite pitching duel. Even though both players went the distance in their respective openers on Thursday, OSU's Lexi Kilfoyl and Stanford's NiJaree Canady are sure to get the start once again. Runs will be hard to come by, but I trust the Cowgirls' bats more. Caroline Wang and Karli Godwin boast a combined 102 RBIs and 32 home runs this season, and they'll help OSU keep its season alive on Friday."

Prediction: OSU 2, Stanford 1
