• Tonight's game marked the first overtime contest in the Bedlam series since OSU won 79-72 in Stillwater on Feb. 13, 2002. The Sooners are 7-1 in overtime Bedlam contests in Norman with prior wins in 1996 (81-75), 1995 (82-74), 1969 (61-59), 1952 (65-61), 1925 (32-31) and 1916 (57-49).

• Oklahoma scored the game's first eight points with the help of a pair of Tommy Mason-Griffin 3-pointers and used 13-0 second-half run to take a five-point lead at the 6:34 mark after OSU had recorded its largest lead of the contest (42-34 at the 13:32 mark of the second half).

• OSU was held without a field goal the final 4:35 of overtime after Marshall Moses scored the first basket of the extra session (1-of-6 from the field in OT).

• Tiny Gallon scored 13 points and added a career-high 18 rebounds for his sixth double-double (tied for third most in the Big 12). Gallon secured his double-double in the first half with 10 points and 11 rebounds.
