No. 11 Okahoma 24, TCU 17: Landry Jones threw a pair of touchdown passes and the visiting Sooners clinched at least a share of the Big 12 title.
TCU had a chance to tie the game in the final minute but Trevonne Boykin's pass fell incomplete.
Oklahoma (10-2, 8-1) appeared to at least earn a BCS bowl berth. The Sooners, though, won't get the Big 12's automatic BCS bowl bid as Kansas State secured that with a 42-24 victory over Texas later Saturday. Oklahoma's only losses were to No. 1 Notre Dame and Kansas State.
Damien Williams scored on an 11-yard pass from Jones and a 66-yard run as the Sooners won their eighth straight conference game. Jones also hooked up with Jalen Sanders on a 24-yard scoring pass.
TCU (7-5, 4-5) lost all four of its Big 12 games at home despite winning four on the road. Brandon Carter caught an 80-yard pass from Boykin to cut the deficit to 21-14 in the third quarter.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Jones was 22-for-40 for 244 yards with an interception. ...Boykin finished 17-for-31 for 231 yards. ...Williams carried the ball 18 times for 115 yards. ...Kansas State plays Texas at 8 p.m. ET.
