OU basketball: Offense struggles late in Sooners' 76-63 loss to Texas

AUSTIN, Texas — The shots finally fell early for Oklahoma.

But Saturday against Texas, they didn't go late.

The No. 3 Sooners went cold in the final seven minutes and No. 25 Texas pulled out a 76-63 win at the Frank Erwin Center.

Oklahoma led by seven with 7:29 remaining when Buddy Hield drove toward the basket, broke down Texas' Jevan Felix and drilled a jumper as Felix fell to the floor.

It seemed like that might be the knock-out blow for the Sooners and Hield, who had controlled the game but hadn't been able to pull away.
