ROCHESTER, Mich. -- Josh Davis converted a 3-point play with two minutes left in overtime to give Western Michigan an 85-77 win over Oakland on Tuesday night.

The Broncos (2-1) bounced back from a 90-64 loss at Ole Miss Saturday.

Brad Brechting got the Golden Grizzlies even twice in overtime, hitting two straight free throws to tie it at 75-75, then knocking down a jumper in answer to a Seth Dugan dunk with 2:20 remaining, but those were the last points Oakland would score. Davis' 3-point play made it 80-77, Jared Printy hit a 3 and Dugan hit a pair of free throws to set the final score.
