Mens Basketball Gameday Thread - Robert Morris at Ok State

It has been 29 years since the Cowboys have beat Robert Morris at Gallagher Iba Arena - will this game end in the same result?

Pomeroy Rank Team Conference W-L
3 Oklahoma State B12 11-1
184 Robert Morris NEC 5-8

Based on our Pomeroy Rank I'm thinking yes. However, there could always a hiccup. It might be foul trouble for Smart, or an off day for Nash.

The Colonials are criminally bad at rebounding and their FG % is not much better. The good news for the Colonials is that they have been able to score an average of 74 points a game which puts them in the top half of NCAA teams.

The AP #6 Ranked Cowboys SHOULD be able to handle the Colonials with ease at home, but we will just have to watch the game to find out.

The game starts at at 7 PM EST / 6 PM CST on ESPN U
