NORMAN, Okla. (AP) – Maddie Manning scored a career-high 14 points and Peyton Little added 13 points and a career-best 10 rebounds to help Oklahoma upset No. 4 Texas 70-59 on Wednesday night.

The Sooners (10-5, 4-0) won their fifth straight and moved into a tie with Baylor atop the Big 12 conference standings.

Texas (13-2, 2-2) was coming off its first loss of the season, a 59-57 setback at Iowa State last Saturday. The Longhorns followed that effort by shooting a season-low 26 percent from the field.

The Longhorns, who entered shooting just 29 percent from 3-point range, made just 4 of 23 3-pointers. Nneka Enemkpali dominated inside with 21 points on 6-for-11 shooting and 16 rebounds, but her teammates made just 11 of 54 field goals and failed to get the ball to her consistently.
