FORT WORTH - Chuck O'Bannon's 3-pointer in overtime proved to be the game-winner in a thrilling TCU win over Oklahoma, 59-58, Saturday in front of 7,175 fans inside Schollmaier Arena.

TCU (12-2, 2-1) trailed 56-54 with just under two minutes remaining in overtime. Eddie Lampkin, who scored all four of his points in the extra period, made a layup to tie the game.

An OU (12-5, 2-3) turnover set up the O'Bannon three, his only one of the night, to put TCU ahead 59-56 with 28 seconds to play. The Sooners cut it to a one-point Frogs lead and after a missed free throw by Mike Miles, OU had possession and a chance to win it with less than 11.5 seconds left. A jumper by Elijah Harkless was off target as the Frogs snapped an eight-game losing streak to the Sooners.

TCU nearly won the game in regulation, up four with 20 seconds to play. With 1.4 on the clock, OU's Jalen Hill was found open under the basket to tie the game 50-50 and send it to overtime.

O'Bannon and Micah Peavy led the Frogs with 11 points each. Peavy, along with Emanuel Miller led the balanced rebounding effort with six as TCU edged OU 37-36 on the boards.
