EXCITING ENDING In Final Minutes Of #21 Baylor at Oklahoma
Jalen Bridges scored 11 points and hit a trio of game-turning 3-pointers in the final five minutes as No. 21 Baylor rallied to hold off Oklahoma 62-60 on Saturday.
Adam Flagler had 16 points and five assists, and Keyonte George added 11 points for Baylor (14-5, 4-3 Big 12), which won its fourth straight game after opening conference play with three straight losses and briefly dropping out of The Associated Press Top 25.
Baylor entered averaging more than 80 points per game, but the Bears had made only three of their first 16 3-point attempts before Bridges hit one with 4:46 left to put Baylor ahead 53-52 – after the Bears had trailed for much of the second half. With 3:39 left, he made another, giving Baylor a 56-54 lead.
Oklahoma (12-7, 2-5) went up 58-56 on a basket by C.J. Noland with 1:38 left, but Bridges hit another 3-pointer 17 seconds later and Baylor never trailed again.
“Obviously, it helps when you have someone like that closing games,” Baylor coach Scott Drew said. “He’ll take tough shots and down the stretch, he made them. He also made the right pass down the stretch. You love having a guy you can trust.”
Grant Sherfield missed on a driving attempt at a tying basket for the Sooners and at the other end, Flagler ran the shot clock down, stepped back and drained a long 3-point shot to seal the win for Baylor with 20.2 seconds left.
Baylor’s defense kept Oklahoma – in a two-possession game – from attempting a shot until Jalen Hill’s uncontested layup with 1.3 seconds left and the Sooners never regained possession. Hill had 17 points and nine rebounds, while Tanner Groves added 16 points, nine rebounds and three blocked shots for the Sooners.
Baylor went 6½ minutes without a basket late in the first half and Oklahoma took advantage, taking a 30-26 lead.
Drew said the Bears’ offensive struggles “didn’t affect our defense in the second half, and we needed all of that. (Oklahoma) really made everything tough for us. We didn’t shoot it well.”
The Sooners only trailed once in the second half before Bridges’ late heroics. Baylor won despite shooting 36.2% (21 of 58) from the field compared to 45.6% (26 of 57) for the Sooners. Baylor outrebounded Oklahoma 39-30, grabbing 17 offensive rebounds.
“That was the storyline,” Oklahoma coach Porter Moser said of the rebounding discrepancy. “In a one-possession game, they had 30 second-chance points. I thought we did some really good things defensively, against one of the top offensive teams. But time and time again, we couldn’t block out, we couldn’t get the rebound.”
