Kansas countered and strung together a 6-0 run to close the half. OU entered the break up 34-29.
After Kansas' Hunter Dickinson opened the second frame with a layup, McCollum drained his third three, putting the Sooners up 37-31.
KU's K.J. Adams Jr. trimmed the deficit to three before McCollum sank two of six made free throws.
With OU up 39-34 with 16:18 remaining, Kansas scored five unanswered points over the next two minutes, tying the game for the first time since 15:52 in the first half.
Sophomore Otega Oweh gave the Sooners back the lead with a jumper before a single free throw by Dickinson and Furphy tied at 41-all with 11:04 left.
Moore gave the Sooners back the advantage after two made free throws, but Dickinson was quick to counter, evening the score once more with a layup.
Senior Sam Godwin provided a brief spark with a thunderous dunk, completing the three-point play at the line.
