02/24 22:51 CST Pack leads balanced Oklahoma attack in commanding 91-79 win over Auburn Pack leads balanced Oklahoma attack in commanding 91-79 win over Auburn NORMAN, Okla. (AP) --- Nijel Pack scored 22 points, Mohamed Wague added 18 points and Oklahoma used its first-half eruption to ride out a 91-79 win over Auburn on Tuesday night. Wague made 10 of 12 foul shots, Derrion Reid scored 16 points and Xzayvier Brown 14 for Oklahoma (14-14, 4-11 Big 12) to end its two-game losing streak. Keyshawn Hall scored 26 points and made all 11 of his foul shots and Kevin Overton scored 26 with the help of 5-for-10 shooting from distance for Auburn (15-13, 6-9). It was Oklahoma's first 90-point plus scoring effort since a 92-91 win over then 15th-ranked Vanderbilt on Feb. 7. The Sooners shot a higher percentage from 3-point range --- 71.4% (10 for 14) --- than their 58.3% mark (7 of 12) from the foul line before halftime. Following Overton's 3-pointer to get Auburn within 33-31 with 7:55 before halftime, the Sooners went on an 11-3 run over the next three-and-a-half minutes to build their first double-digit lead to 44-34 with 4:31 left before the break. The Sooners led 51-42 at halftime and stayed ahead by double digits for most of the second half.
