Who’s Playing
Oregon State @ Tulsa
Current Records: Oregon State 1-1; Tulsa 1-1
What to Know
The Tulsa Golden Hurricane will stay at home another game and welcome the Oregon State Beavers at 9 p.m. ET Nov. 15 at Donald Reynolds Center. Neither the Golden Hurricane nor Oregon State could muster much offensive firepower in their last games, so look to the defense to decide this one.
Tulsa was just a bucket shy of a victory this past Saturday and fell 59-58 to the Air Force Falcons. This was hardly the result Tulsa or its fans were betting on, as they were favored by 15 points over Air Force heading into this game. A silver lining for Tulsa was the play of Sam Griffin, who shot 5-for-8 from beyond the arc and finished with 21 points.
Meanwhile, the Beavers came up short against the Iowa State Cyclones this past Friday, falling 60-50.
The losses bumped both teams down to an identical 1-1. A pair of last-season stats to keep an eye on: The Golden Hurricane have allowed their opponents to shoot 47.80% from the floor on average, which is the 38th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. But Oregon State has only been able to knock down 38% percent of their shots, which is the 37th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
