Labaron Philon helps No. 18 Alabama top Oklahoma

Labaron Philon scored 23 points, hitting a trio of key shots down the stretch, to lead No. 18 Alabama to an 83-81 win over Oklahoma on Saturday in a Southeastern Conference game in Norman, Okla.

Philon's final bucket came in the last minute as he drove baseline, hitting a high reverse layup through a foul by the Sooners' Kirill Elatontsev to put the Crimson Tide up by three points with 20 seconds remaining.

Philon hit the free throw to extend the lead to two possessions. But the game was far from over.
