The Kansas Jayhawks outlasted the Oklahoma Sooners 109-106 on Monday night in a triple-overtime clash between the top two teams in the nation. It was the type of tense, nerve-wracking contest that likely had more than just Kansas and Oklahoma supporters holding their breath.
The tilt featured legendary Allen Fieldhouse as the backdrop and a once-in-a-lifetime performance by the Sooners' Buddy Hield, which made it all the more incredible.
