March is here, which means the NCAA Tournament is right around the corner. <\/p>\n

That also means it is crunch time for the Houston Cougars <\/a>and Oklahoma State ahead of the Big 12 Tournament, with a chance to stamp themselves as a team no one wants to see later this month. <\/p>\n

Both the Cougars<\/a> and Cowboys meet this weekend, so here\u2019s how to watch another great rendition of these two programs facing off. <\/p>\n

Interesting Statistics to Know About Oklahoma State Basketball<\/p>\n

To begin the season, the Cowboys started 9-0 with quality wins over Texas A&M and Northwestern before losing their first game to Oklahoma. <\/p>\n

After a rough start to conference play, Oklahoma State found itself toward the bottom of the Big 12 standings and is now climbing back up, but it is not a bubble team. There is no path to the NCAA Tournament<\/a> for them except winning the Big 12 Tournament, which begins next week. They\u2019ll need to win out to have an opportunity to get in the big dance. <\/p>\n

As a group, the Cowboys are averaging 84.2 points per game and are shooting 46.1 percent from the field. From beyond the arc, they are going 34.3 percent and are a 73.9 percent shooting team from the charity stripe. There are four players averaging double digits, and six players playing 20 or more minutes. <\/p>\n

Both Oklahoma State and Houston are going to try to post as many points on the scoreboard as possible and close out the regular season strong before heading to Kansas City, Missouri. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"March is here, which means the NCAA Tournament is right around the corner.
