No. 9 West Virginia escaped with a 69-67 victory over sixth-ranked Oklahoma when Sooners star Buddy Hield's half-court shot that banked in was ruled a fraction of a second late in the Big 12 semifinals Friday night. Jevon Carter scored 26 points to lead the Mountaineers (26-7), but it was Jaysean Paige whose pullup jumper over Isaiah Cousins gave them the lead back with 11.1 seconds left in the game. Christian James missed a potential go-ahead layup at the other end and the Sooners (25-7) fouled with 1.8 seconds left.
