Corey Brewer scored Oklahoma’s
final five points and the Sooners
overcame a 12-point second-half
deficit to beat Texas A&M 62-59 in
overtime Tuesday night.
Oklahoma (13-6, 5-4 Big 12)
won consecutive games for the
first time since December. The
Sooners got back into the game by
holding Texas A&M (8-11, 2-7)
scoreless for 6 1/2 minutes late in
the second half, and won despite
getting just six points from Nate
Erdmann, whose 23.5 average in
Big 12 games led the league.
“I thought we played well on
Erdmann,” A&M Head Coach Tony
Barone said. “He is a great player. I
think Brewer and Erdmann are the
best combo of guards in the league.”
The Aggies had a chance to win at
the end of regulation, but Shanne
Jones missed a point-blank shot
with about two seconds remaining.
Tracey Anderson, who scored 21
for A&M, drove inside for a basket to
start overtime. Then the Sooners
scored five in a row — three

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Top-
ranked Kansas ran out of great

ball near the free throw line and
scored with 5.6 seconds to go in

Missouri handed the Jayhawks
their first loss of the season, 96-94.
Kelly Thames had 24 points and 11
rebounds and Derek Grimm had 20
points for Missouri (12-10,4-6 Big 12).
Grimm fouled out in the first over
time and Thames fouled out witli 1:15
to go in the second overtime.
It was the second consecutive
overtime game for Kansas,

“We’re keeping our heads up,

said. “All we can do is keep work

While there is a sense of
