AUSTIN, Texas - Myck Kabongo scored 32 points and made an
off-balance jumper at the buzzer to force overtime, and Texas rallied from 22
points down in the second half to beat Oklahoma 92-86 Wednesday night.
Kabongo scored Texas' first six points in overtime, opening the period with
a 3-pointer to give Texas its first lead since early in the first half.
Romero Osby (AHZ'-bee) scored 31 for Oklahoma (18-9, 10-5 Big 12), which led
67-45 on a dunk by Amath M'Baye (ah-MAHT' EHM'-by) with 7:54 to play in
regulation. Texas stormed back behind a 13-0 run that flipped momentum.
Sheldon McClellan scored 17 for Texas (13-15, 5-10), including three free
throws with 9.5 seconds left. Osby missed one of two free throws on the other
end, setting up Kabongo's desperation shot that tied it at 77.
