KANSAS CITY, Mo. – -/RV Oklahoma men's basketball dropped its 2024 Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship second-round contest to TCU 77-70 at T-Mobile Center on Wednesday afternoon.

Down 71-55 after a pair of made free throws by Jameer Nelson Jr. with 5:08 remaining, Oklahoma rallied to cut the deficit to single digits.

TCU again visited the charity stripe, making two and extending its advantage to 75-63 with 2:10 remaining.

The sophomore duo again went on the attack. Uzan banged home a 3-pointer before Oweh cut the TCU lead to seven with a jumper.

TCU's Nelson Jr. and Oweh traded free throws for the final points of the contest. The Horned Frogs did not make a field goal for the final 6:45.

The Horned Frogs raced out to a 12-point advantage over the first six minutes of the first half and entered the break up 45-31. TCU's Micah Peavy buried a half-court 3-pointer at the buzzer.
