Wichita State Shockers vs. Tulsa Golden Hurricane Prediction

I’m on the over in this one.I just think we’re headed for some points in this one, as Tulsa’s been on fire offensively, but despite some of the recent results not showing it, Wichita State can match the fire that Tulsa brings to the table offensively. Not sure if either one of these teams pulls away in the second half, but I think we’re getting some points. Give me the over.
