A late rally wasn’t enough to save the Oklahoma State basketball team from an 83-76 loss to Minnesota on Friday at U.S. Bank Stadium, the home of the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings and site of the 2019 Final Four.
The Cowboys’ 12-0 run cut into an 18-point deficit, and although OSU was able to get within four points, it couldn’t complete the comeback.
Here are three takeaways from the Cowboys’ defeat.
No such thing as free
A continual problem for OSU has been free-throw shooting. The Cowboys went 12-for-24 at the line Friday, with eight of the 12 misses coming from freshmen.
