Can the Cowboys Lasso the Cougars at Fertitta Center?
As the Oklahoma State Cowboys prepare to face off against the Houston Cougars, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent momentum. The upcoming clash at Fertitta Center on February 7th promises to be a spectacle of skill and strategy.
The Cowboys have been showcasing a robust performance in their recent games, with an impressive victory over Wofford Terriers on December 20th, where they emerged victorious with a score of 76-70. Their offense was firing on all cylinders, as evidenced by their remarkable 46 percent three-point shooting and an even more impressive assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.62. The defense wasn't far behind either, racking up 10 steals and limiting turnovers to just 13.
Another notable performance came against Oral Roberts Golden Eagles on December 17th when OKST outshone ORU with an astounding final score of 81-60. The Cowboys' offensive prowess was clear with a field goal percentage of 50 and three-point shooting at nearly half success rate (47 percent). Their playmaking abilities were also commendable; dishing out a total of 24 assists reflects their teamwork and court vision.
Even in less favorable conditions such as the neutral-site game against Tulsa Golden Hurricane on December 10th, OKST managed to secure a win despite Tulsa's aggressive defense that led to them stealing the ball an astonishingly high number of times (19). The Cowboys kept composure under pressure and finished strong with a scoreline reading in favor of them at 72-57.
The Houston Cougars will undoubtedly be formidable opponents; however, based on past performances, it is clear that OKST has both resilience and firepower. They've shown they can adapt whether it's grinding out points in paint or raining threes from beyond the arc.
With this upcoming game being held at Houston's home turf – Fertitta Center – there is no doubt that it will add an extra layer of challenge for Oklahoma State. Yet given how they've been playing lately, there’s every reason for Cowboy fans to believe that their team can walk away with another win added to their tally.
Fans should mark their calendars for February 7th when these two teams collide head-on in what promises to be an enthralling encounter. Tip-off is scheduled for prime time viewing pleasure, so make sure you're tuned into ESPN Networks where all the action will unfold live from Houston!
