Ol Miss just lost to Minnesota by 2. Codie McMahon fouled out with 4 minutes to go and that was that.

The ESPN app isn't letting me pull up the game.

Oregon is on a 6-0 run and has a 10-6 lead.

Nice drive by Booker to cut the deficit to one, 13-12.

Rori will be at the line for a chance at a three-point play when play resumes.

Texas 14, Oregon 13

4:21 to go, 1Q
