NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Tanner Groves had 14 points and 10 rebounds, and Oklahoma recovered from squandering a 14-point lead in the second half to beat Oklahoma State 66-62 in overtime on Saturday afternoon.

Avery Anderson scored 25 points and Moussa Cisse added 12 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks for the Cowboys (13-15, 6-10). Oklahoma State was coming off a 66-64 overtime loss to Baylor on Monday.

Oklahoma led by 14 in the early minutes of the second half, and a floater by Marvin Johnson gave Oklahoma a 46-33 lead with just over 10 minutes to go.
Oklahoma State chipped away late. A layup by Anderson made it 52-47 with 1:50 to play, and a 3-pointer by Rondel Walker cut it to 54-52 with 46.4 seconds remaining.
Cisse's dunk on a lob from Isaac Likekele tied the game at 54 with 7.9 seconds left. Oklahoma missed a tip at the buzzer, and the game went to overtime.

BIG PICTURE
Oklahoma State: The Cowboys waited too long to push the tempo, and when they finally did, it only drew them even. They featured Cisse late in regulation, but he could have helped them overcome their halfcourt shooting issues earlier.
Oklahoma: The Sooners had lost four straight, with two coming by two or fewer points, including an overtime loss at Kansas. They finally got something to show for their solid play.
