Oklahoma St. Cowboys
The Oklahoma State Cowboys have had a challenging season marked by struggles both offensively and defensively. With an overall record of 12-18, the team has faced difficulties in finding consistency, as seen in their recent loss to Texas Tech. Offensively, they average 71.3 points per game on a 44.3% shooting from the field, ranking low in college basketball's scoring statistics. Defensively, they allow an average of 72.2 points per game, with opponents shooting 45.8% from the field against them. Their rebounding average of 33.6 per game has also been a limiting factor in controlling the pace of games. Team leaders Javon Small, Quion Williams, and Brandon Garrison have shown promise, but more support is needed from the rest of the team to make a significant impact. The Cowboys face a tough matchup against BYU, highlighting the importance of improving their performance on both ends of the court.
