COLUMBIA, MO. (AP) -- No. 19 Missouri overwhelmed Oklahoma with its bench, getting 16 points from Michael Dixon and 11 from Justin Safford in an 84-61 victory on Saturday.

Marcus Denmon, Missouri's leading scorer with a 16.5 point average, was struck in the face under the Oklahoma basket with just under 18 minutes remaining and did not return, finishing with nine points. He was treated on the bench for several minutes before leaving the court.

The Tigers (19-6, 5-5 Big 12) romped without needing much from Kim English, either. English, restored to the lineup after a two-game absence, was scoreless for 33 minutes, finished with six points on 2-for-10 shooting.

Ricardo Ratliffe had 13 points for Missouri and Laurence Bowers had eight points and nine rebounds.

Cameron Clark had 16 points and Tyler Neal had 14 for Oklahoma (12-12, 4-6), which has a freshman and three sophomores starting.
