LUBBOCK, Texas, Feb. 28 (UPI) -- Blake Griffin, playing in his first game in a week, had 20 points and 19 rebounds Saturday to lead No. 3 Oklahoma to a 78-63 win over Texas Tech.

Griffin suffered a concussion in the first half of last Saturday's game against Texas and sat out Monday's game against Kansas. The Sooners (26-3, 12-2 Big 12) lost both games to fall behind the 15th-ranked Jayhawks in the Big 12 standings.

Blake Griffin's brother Taylor Griffin had 22 points and eight rebounds Saturday.

John Roberson led the Red Raiders (12-17, 2-12) with 17 points and seven assists but Texas Tech suffered its 10th loss in its last 11 games. Nick Okorie scored 13 points and Robert Lewandowski had 11 for the Raiders.
