Things didn't look so good with less than three minutes to play, but a furious finish lifted Oklahoma State to a 90-85 overtime victory over Texas-San Antonio and into the NIT Tip-Off Semifinals.

The Cowboys trailed by 11 points with 2:30 remaining, but went on a 17-to-6 run to tie the game on Cezar Guerrero's three-pointer with eight seconds remaining.

The Cowboys again trailed in overtime, 85-81, before ending the game with nine straight points.

Guerrero tied the OSU single-game freshman scoring record with 29 points to lead the Cowboys, who now advance to New York City to face Stanford in the Tip-Off semifinals to be played at Madison Square Garden.

The game against Stanford will be November 23rd at 6 p.m. and the game will be televised on ESPN2.
