One fan threw a beer at the visiting Wildcats while they left the court and headed to the tunnel following an 83-82 win against the Sooners at the Lloyd Noble Center in Oklahoma. The beer appeared to miss any Kentucky player, although sophomore Brandon Garrison turned around after the can whipped by his head.

Kentucky's win over Oklahoma was a big one, as it was a must-win game for seeding purposes in both the NCAA and SEC Tournaments. It was a game where both teams threw haymakers, but the Wildcats threw the last punch via a buzzer-beating basket from former Sooner Otega Oweh.

Otega Oweh made sure his return to Oklahoma was a memorable one. After spending his first two collegiate seasons with the Sooners before transferring to Kentucky, Oweh put on a performance for the ages, pouring in a career-high 28 points to lead the Wildcats to an 83-82 road victory.

Kentucky is 18-9 overall and 7-7 in the SEC after a 96-83 loss at Alabama last Saturday. Coach Mark Pope’s team is ranked No. 16 in KenPom’s adjusted overall efficiency rankings. The Wildcats are ranked No. 5 in adjusted offensive efficiency and No. 61 in adjusted defensive efficiency.
