COLUMBIA, Mo., Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Zaire Taylor's jumper with 1.3 seconds left Monday night handed No. 19 Missouri a 62-60 win over 16th-ranked Kansas.
Taylor had seven points in the game and DeMarre Carroll had 22 points and seven rebounds for the Tigers (21-4, 8-2 Big Ten), who won their fourth straight game and handed the Jayhawks (19-5, 8-1) their first conference loss.
Leo Lyons had 13 points for Missouri, which trailed 30-16 at the half but stormed back in the second half for the victory.
Tyshawn Taylor led the Jayhawks with 11 points. Sherron Collins, Mario Little and Travis Releford had nine points apiece and Cole Aldrich finished with eight points and 15 rebounds.
Kansas led 58-56 with 1 ½ minutes left to play but Lyons tied it at 58-58 with a pair of free throws. The Tigers took a 60-58 lead on a jumper by J.T. Tiller, but Little tied it at 60-60 with a jumper with 29 seconds remaining.
After Taylor drove to the basket in the closing seconds and hit the game-winning layup, Aldrich managed to get off a shot as time ran out but the shot didn't go.
