OKLAHOMA 77, OKLAHOMA STATE 64: Steven Pledger scored 17 points as the host Sooners snapped a six-game losing streak.
Oklahoma (14-13, 4-11 Big 12) did most of its damage in the first half, when it held the Cowboys (13-15, 6-9) to only four made field goals to open up a 30-12 halftime edge.
Keiton Page made nine 3-pointers to lead Oklahoma State with 29 points, including back-to-back 3-pointers seven minutes into the second half that capped a 27-12 spurt and cut the lead to 42-39.
But the Cowboys never got closer as Oklahoma responded with a 16-2 run to make it 58-42 on two C.J. Washington free throws with 7:58 remaining.
Romero Osby added 16 points for the Sooners, who hadn’t won since Jan. 28 at Kansas State.
GAME NOTEBOOK: The teams split the season series. … Page has scored 92 points in the last three games. … The Cowboys, coming off an upset of Texas over the weekend, haven’t won back-to-back games since early December.
