Michael Dixon scored 16 points, Ricardo Ratliffe added 13 and No. 20 Missouri forced 17 turnovers en route to an 84-61 home victory against Oklahoma Saturday.
The Sooners (12-12, 4-6 Big 12) led by as many as six in the first half, but the Tigers (19-6, 5-5 Big 12) reeled off a 14-1 run and never trailed again.
Justin Safford added 11 points and six rebounds for Missouri.
Cameron Clark scored 16 points and Tyler Neal added 14 off the bench for the Sooners, who haven't won in Columbia, Mo., since Feb. 2001.
Missouri had lost three of four to fall below .500 in the Big 12, but the Tigers have only one ranked opponent left on their schedule, a visit from No. 2 Kansas in the regular-season finale March 5.
