Probably because the announcers all but claim that they are. (You know that superior angle they have from the halfcourt line - opposite the table, nonetheless.)
In the Oka/Mizz game, there was a close play toward the end of the game where OK was granted a timeout (close to a 10-sec backcourt call) and soon after the whistle, one of the Mizz players tripped the Oka player from the ground by using his hands.
The (once again, partially correct) explanation - because that's a dead ball technical foul, Oklahoma will get the ball at the halfcourt line.
