NORMAN, Okla. -- — Jalen Moore scored 20 points to lead No. 21 Oklahoma past winless Alcorn State 94-78 on Saturday night.

Alcorn State: The Braves came out shooting and made their first seven 3-point shots. But Alcorn State was sloppy with the ball and gave the Sooners several fast-break opportunities.

Oklahoma led 49-41 at halftime and started the second half on a 19-7 run that featured four steals — two by Duke Miles — and two dunks to open up a 68-48 advantage with 14:40 remaining.
