Baylor snaps 30-game skid vs. Oklahoma, wins 91-60
WACO, Texas — LaceDarius Dunn scored 23 of his 28 points in the second half as Baylor ended a 30-game losing streak against Oklahoma by blowing out the Sooners 91-60 on Saturday.
Tweety Carter added 18 points and 10 assists for the Bears (13-1, 1-0 Big 12), while Ekpe Udoh had 14 points, eight rebounds and seven blocked shots.
Tiny Gallon led Oklahoma (9-6, 0-1) with 17 points and Tony Crocker added 16.
The win was Baylor’s first over the Sooners since Dec. 6, 1977, in Norman, and the Bears’ first win in Waco since Dec. 14, 1954. Oklahoma had been 26-0 against Baylor since the formation of the Big 12 in 1996.
The Sooners led 20-11 in the opening minutes as Crocker and Gallon combined for 17 points.
But after an eight-minute delay caused by a power failure, Baylor stormed back with a 14-0 run to take a 25-20 lead with 8:14 left in the half.
