Lawrence, KS – Tyshawn Taylor nailed a pair of foul shots 86 win over No. 3 Missouri in the final Big 12 regular season edition of the Border War.
Missouri was unable to get a shot off in the final eight seconds. Taylor's free throws came right after Marcus Denmon gave the Tigers a one-point advantage with a floater along the right baseline with 12 seconds left.
Thomas Robinson recorded his 20th double-double of the season with 28 points and 12 boards while Taylor netted nine of his 24 points in the extra session for Kansas (24-5, 14-2 Big 12), which clinched at least a share of the Big 12 regular season conference title.
The Jayhawks eroded a 19-point second-half deficit and improved to 16-0 at Phog Allen Fieldhouse this season. They shot 48.3 percent from the field and 9-of-19 from beyond the arc.
Denmon scored 28 points and Ricardo Ratliffe provided 22 points and 12 boards for Missouri (25-4, 12-4), which lost its second consecutive game.
