The Shockers now look like a team that knows how to win on the road. Once mistake-prone and fragile away from Koch Arena, Wichita State played a complete, mature game on Wednesday. Tulsa had beaten five Pomeroy top-100 teams at Reynolds Center – Oklahoma State, Kansas State (with Dean Wade), UConn, Memphis (by 16 points) and Temple (by 18 points).
Wichita State rolled into Tulsa and handled the Hurricane 81-60. Two first-half turnovers and great shooting (7 of 15 from three-point range) helped the Shockers take a 42-28 halftime lead.
