This past Saturday, the Oklahoma State Cowboys’ basketball team took a beating at the hands of the Cincinnati Bearcats. UC won 91-68 in a dominant performance that leaves the Bearcats tied for 8th in the Big 12 (with a conference record of 8-8) and sends the Cowboys even further towards the bottom.

The Bearcats shot well throughout the matchup, especially from deep—they sunk 41% of their 34 attempted three-pointers, including a career-high seven from Day Day Thomas. The team was physically dominant inside as well, with 26 points in the paint and 43 rebounds.
