Creighton loses to Oklahoma 87-74

Jays kept it close for a while but the Sooner bandwagon churned on.

The Creighton Bluejays had a shot at winning this. Honestly, they did. At one point in the second half the Jays had Oklahoma on the ropes, a 1-point deficit and Oklahoma on a scoreless streak of 7+ minutes. In that span, Isaiah Zierden missed a three, Khyri Thomas missed a dunk, Ronnie Harrell goofed up a drive and Geoffrey Groselle bounced a pass into the arms of a waiting Sooner defense.

Oklahoma, after failing to score for that stretch of time, went on a 7-0 run.
