Oklahoma Basketball: Sooners hang on to top No. 5 Texas, 80-79

I don’t know where to begin, but let’s give it a shot.

The No. 24 Oklahoma Sooners held on to pull off an 80-79 upset of the No. 5 Texas Longhorns to improve to 10-4 on the season and 6-3 in Big 12 play. It was OU’s second straight win over a top-10 team and its third on the young season.

There is, however, a bit to unpack from this one.

Oklahoma got some great performances from a number of sources, including Austin Reaves, contributing 23 points while only turning it over twice at the point guard position.
