MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Nyeshia Stevenson scored 24 points to lead No. 11 Oklahoma from a 21-point deficit to a 64-58 victory over Kansas State Sunday at Bramlage Coliseum.
Celebrating the WBCA's Pink Zone initiative, the home crowd was dressed in pink t-shirts to support breast cancer awarneess, but it was the Sooner fans who cheered loudest at the end.
Oklahoma (19-7, 9-3 Big 12) started the game with back-to-back field goals, but could do nothing else right in the first half, trailing by 16 at halftime after committing a season-high 14 first-half turnovers and scoring a season-low 18 first-half points.
Kansas State (12-14, 4-8 Big 12) jumped to a 43-22 lead behind a Brittany Chambers 3-pointer with 16:03 remaining. Then the Sooners took over.
OU closed the gap to six points with a 15-0 run, in which Stevenson scored six points, over the next four minutes.
Amanda Thompson had her ninth double-double of the season with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Thompson pulled in nearly every crucial rebound and loose ball as the Sooners mounted their comeback.
After shooting 0-for-6, 0-for-4 beyond the arc, Carlee Roethlisberger scored five of OU's final eight points as the Sooners opened the game from a 54-54 tie to a 64-58 win in the final two minutes.
The Sooners outrebounded the Wildcats 41-28 for the game, 25-11 in the second half.
