No. 20 Texas edges past Oklahoma for 80-78 win in overtime

Oklahoma Sooners guard Elijah Harkless missed a desperation three at the buzzer as the No. 20 Texas Longhorns narrowly pulled out an overtime rivalry win in Norman on Tuesday evening thanks to big performances in the extra period by senior guard Marcus Carr and senior forward Timmy Allen.

Allen scored a game-high 20 points, combining with Carr to score 14 of the 16 points by the Longhorns in overtime and setting up the other basket, a layup by senior forward Christian Bishop, who added 16 points, one short of his season high. Bishop finished plus-15 in the game despite battling foul trouble throughout.
