The victory was improbable with the late deficit but bordered on the miraculous as LSU was without three front-court players: starting redshirt freshman Corey Chest, fifth-year senior Derek Fountain and freshman Trey’Dez Green.

LSU senior guard Cam Carter was dropping bucket after bucket playing and doing anything to get the Tigers back in the win column. He went on a 7-0 run by himself late as LSU beat Oklahoma 82-79. The win snapped a seven-game losing skid for LSU (13-12, 2-10 SEC). The Sooners (16-9, 3-9) suffered their fourth straight loss.

The LSU Tigers scored the eight points in the last 20 seconds, rallying from 13 points down in the final 16 minutes to score an 82-79 victory over Oklahoma on Saturday night at the Lloyd Noble Center.
