The Cowboys won their first true road game since topping Auburn, 74-63, on Jan. 30, 2016. OSU was 1-9 on the road last year, and has lost six straight true road contests.
The Cowboys held the Hurricane without a field goal for a 6:54 stretch of the first half, and the Cowboys responded with a 20-4 run that saw them lead by as much as 29-16 with 4:51 left in the frame.

Brandon Averette got the start at point guard and piled up a career-high 17 points.
Jeffrey Carroll was a stat-stuffer once again. The junior tallied 13 points and a team-high eight rebounds. Carroll has reached double-figures in scoring in all but one game this season, and at least five rebounds in all but one game this season.
Thomas Dziagwa scored a career-high 11 points on 3-of-6 shooting from 3-point, and hit the game-sealing free throws with 1.1 on the clock.
