• The Cowboys improved to 21-0 all-time against members of the Southwestern Athletic Conference.
• OSU's 63 first-half points were just four shy of the school record of 67 set against Houston Baptist on Dec. 15, 1998.
• The Cowboys scored 117 points, the most since scoring 122 vs Northwestern State on Jan. 3, 2009.
• Oklahoma State's 55-point margin of victory is tied for the 10th-largest in school history.
• The Cowboys shot 61.3 percent from the floor, the first time since Jan. 3, 2011, the last time that OSU broke the 60-percent mark. The Pokes shot 60.9 percent vs UTSA that day.
