No. 1 Baylor men’s basketball pulled out the 61-57 win after a late run by Oklahoma Monday night at the Ferrell Center. The victory came as the Bears celebrated the anniversary of the Immortal Ten, playing their first home game as the top-ranked team in the nation.
Baylor led by nine points with 3:10 left on the clock, and fans started to head for the exits, but Oklahoma ran off nine of the next 11 points to close the lead to two. With 40 seconds left, the Bears ran cross-court dribble handoff repeatedly to draw switches and left sophomore guard Jared Butler above the break with 10 seconds left on the shot clock.
