Missouri guard Michael Dixon (11) hold his head while Kansas guard Travis Releford waves a towel in celebration following Kansas' win over Missouri 87-86 in overtime, in Lawrence, Kan.
Tyshawn Taylor and Thomas Robinson made it a memorable ending for Kansas.
Robinson kept the game going with a three-point play in the closing seconds of regulation, and Taylor's two free throws with 8.3 seconds left in overtime gave the fourth-ranked Jayhawks an 87-86 win over No. 3 Missouri on Saturday in their final scheduled regular-season matchup.

Prince Okoroh #3 of the Howard Bison loses the ball as Elijah Johnson #15 of the Kansas Jayhawks defends during the game on Dec. 29, 2011 at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas.
AP reports: LAWRENCE, Kan. - Howard knew what it was getting into when it scheduled a two-game swing through the Sunflower State. It can only hope to fare better against Kansas State than it did at No. 17 Kansas.
Prince Okoroh had seven points and six rebounds to lead the Bison, who fell 89-34 to the Jayhawks on Thursday night. Howard watched as the bigger, stronger team from the Big 12 raced out to a double-digit lead in the opening minutes and never looked back as it prepped for conference play.
"We got our butts kicked," Howard coach Kevin Nickelberry said.
