Tulsa Golden Hurricane Betting Preview

The Tulsa Golden Hurricane (11-19, 12-16 ATS) recorded just five wins in 2025 and suffered 12 defeats in the process. Following wins over Temple and UTSA, Tulsa lost to North Texas, Rice, Tulane, and Temple. The Golden Hurricane are 11th in the American Standings with the same record as UTSA, two wins ahead of the last-placed Charlotte and 10.5 games behind the leaders Memphis Tigers.

Tulsa is averaging 71.5 PPG (270th) and is allowing 74.0 PPG (243rd). The Golden Hurricane are getting 36.1 RPG (151st) and dishing out 13.9 APG (185th).

Wichita State Shockers Betting Preview

The Wichita State Shockers (18-12, 13-14-2 ATS) were on a six-game winning streak for the second time this season but couldn’t make it seven in a row as UAB stopped them. The Shockers then went to the two-game road trip and faced North Texas and Rice, losing the first and winning the second one. Wichita State is 7th in the American Standings with the same record as Temple and is three wins ahead of Tulsa.

Wichita State averages 74.0 PPG (191st) and allows 72.4 PPG (195th). The Shockers are 44th in rebounds (38.5) and 364th in assists (11.8). Xavier Bell leads the team with 15.3 PPG and 3.0 RPG.

Tulsa vs Wichita State Prediction

Wichita State is a better team this season and it is 7-3 in the last ten H2H encounters, but Tulsa won two of the previous three, including the first meeting of the season when it was 84-77 at Tulsa. I am pretty sure the Shockers will get a W here, but the spread is tricky and I will opt for the Golden Hurricane to cover. All the visitors need to do is to lose by single digits and not embarrass themselves.

Oliver Zivic's Pick: Tulsa +11.5
