Michigan Wolverines at Oklahoma Sooners

Jeremiah Fears' 4-point play with 11.5 seconds left helps No. 14 Oklahoma edge No. 24 Michigan 87-86

Fears finished with 30 points on 8-of-12 shooting as the Sooners (11-0) remained unbeaten. Duke Miles had 17 points, including two big 3s in the second half.

Vladislav Goldin finished with 26 points and 10 rebounds, while Danny Wolf had 15 points and 10 rebounds for the Wolverines (8-3).

The Wolverines were in control most of the game and had a three-point lead and the ball with 30 seconds left before a turnover gave the Sooners a chance.

After several passes around the perimeter, Fears broke free and made a 30-footer from the left wing and fell back as he was fouled by Roddy Gayle Jr. The Wolverines still had a chance to win the game on their final possession, but Tre Donaldson missed a 3-pointer and Wolf couldn't get the offensive rebound off before the clock expired.

Takeaways Michigan: This is going to be a tough one to recover from for Michigan. The Wolverines inexplicably went away from 7-footers Goldin and Wolf in the second half and the Sooners were able to battle back from down 11.

Oklahoma: Outside of a win over then-No. 24 Arizona, the Sooners hadn't been tested much this season. But they showed their mettle by battling back against one of tallest teams in the country. Fears proved he's a gamer with a huge shot to win it.

Key moment Gayle turned the ball over with 30 seconds and his team up 86-83.

Key stat The Sooners were 12 of 25 from beyond the arc, while the Wolverines were just 4 of 28.
