Oklahoma basketball came close to snapping a long losing streak at Kansas, but fell just short in 63-59 to the sixth-ranked Jayhawks.
The Sooners (6-4, 2-3) played without starter Brady Manek, who missed the game because of COVID-19 protocols, and left everything they had on the floor in a surprisingly strong showing on the road against one of the best teams in the country.
