Oklahoma vs. Kansas: Live Score, Highlights and Reaction

Forty minutes wasn't enough to decide the first No. 1 vs. No. 2 meeting of conference teams since 2007, as top-ranked Kansas held on for a 109-106 triple-overtime win against Oklahoma on Monday night.

Kansas (13-1, 2-0 Big 12) led by as many as 11 points in the first half but trailed by nine early in the second before rallying. The game was tied at 77 after regulation, knotted at 86 after one overtime and at 94 following a second extra period. In the third five-minute session, the Jayhawks came out on top thanks to a couple of big defensive plays down the stretch: a pair of steals by Frank Mason III that turned a one-point deficit into a three-point victory.

Oklahoma (12-1, 1-1) had a chance to win it at the end, but Buddy Hield's wild three-point try hit the backboard. Hield, who was responsible for both late turnovers, finished with 46 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.

Perry Ellis had 27 points and 13 rebounds for Kansas, which got 21 from Wayne Selden Jr. and 20 from Devonte' Graham.

Oklahoma also got 27 from Jordan Woodard, who was 6-of-9 on three-pointers, but he fouled out with 16 seconds remaining.

Khadeem Lattin, who had 10 points, 14 rebounds and six blocks for the Sooners, had a chance to win the game in regulation but missed the front end of a one-and-one with less than three seconds left.

It was Kansas' 32nd straight win at Allen Fieldhouse, where Oklahoma hasn't won since 1993.
