Well-played Bedlam. @OSUMBB roll continues. @OU_MBBall strong performance. Didn't realize just OSU's 5th sweep in last 5 decades. @news9

Despite not scoring a field goal in the final 4:55 of the game, the Sooners jumped out of the gates on fire. OU shot nearly 57-percent from the field in the first half to take a nine-point lead at halftime.
The Sooners went on to lead by as many as 13 points with 8:44 left in the second half, but the Pokes wouldn’t go away.
Phil Forte III fueled a quick 9-0 run to bring the Pokes with four points, then Evans completely took over the game. Whether he was taking the ball to the rack, calmly swishing jumpers from the mid-range, or knocking down a shot from behind the arc, Evans was in the zone. The sophomore point guard capped off 16 straight points with a clutch and-1 layup to put OSU up 94-92 with 1:08 left.
Evans went from poor first half to being unstoppable. Last 16 of OSU points.

Rashard Odomes tallied the first double-double of his career with 29 points and 10 rebounds while Chrstian James and Dante Buford each scored 13 points off the bench.
