KU’s rally falls short against Oklahoma State in another home loss

Oklahoma State’s basketball players spoiled a heck of a party on Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.

The Cowboys (14-9, 4-6) stunned No. 7-ranked Kansas (18-5, 7-3) 84-79 before a crowd of 16,300 that included about 200 former KU players, coaches and staff members on hand for the Jayhawks’ 120 years of basketball reunion weekend.

Kendall Smith scored a career-high 24 points with five rebounds and five assists, while Cameron McGriff had a career best 20 points with nine rebounds for the Cowboys. Jeffrey Carroll added 15 points and Lindy Waters 11 for an OSU team that hit 12 of 27 threes to KU’s 8 of 22.
