After an exchange of scoreless possessions, Williams made a pair of foul shots before Lukosius made a 3 to reduce the deficit to 74-71. Skillings' layup with 26 seconds left brought Cincinnati within a point.
Small made a pair of foul shots with 19 and seven seconds left for a 78-75 lead. Oklahoma State then fouled Thomas to keep him from getting off a 3 and a chance to tie it. He made the first of a one-and-one but Oklahoma State rebounded an intentional miss. Keller made two foul shots with two seconds left to end it.
The Cowboys host Oklahoma on Saturday. Cincinnati travels to face TCU on Saturday.
