Oklahoma State ran away with a 85-76 win over Seton Hall on Sunday at the Prudential Center in New Jersey.

The Cowboys (6-2) took Seton Hall out of their slow-paced offense by applying full-court pressure to cause several turnovers by the Pirates. With a series of fastbreak baskets, OSU mounted a 19-point halftime lead on the way.

OSU registered 10 first-half takeaways and outscored the Pirates 17-2 off turnovers and 16-0 on fastbreaks.

The win clinched a 6-5 decision for the Big 12 in its annual challenge series with the Big East conference.

Robert Jennings II and Jamyron Keller each scored 14 points to lead the Cowboys scoring. Brandon Newman (13 points), Abou Ousmane (13) and Arturo Dean (11) also finished in double-figures.

OSU shot 56.9% from the field, including over 60% in the first half against a Seton Hall team that entered the day ranked third nationally in scoring defense, previously limiting its opponents to 56.6 points on 38% shooting.

Seton Hall settled down in the second half and cut the Cowboys 25-point down to as little as seven points with 54 seconds to play in the second half. The Cowboys finished the game by scoring eight consecutive free throws to seal the win.

The Cowboys are back in action next Saturday at Oklahoma City’s Paycom Center against the 21st ranked Oklahoma Sooners in the 250th men’s basketball edition of the Bedlam rivalry (7:00 p.m. CT, ESPNU).
