The UTSA Roadrunners and the Oklahoma Sooners meet in college basketball action from the Lloyd Noble Center on Friday night.

The UTSA Roadrunners will look to build on their 97-66 win over Trinity University in their season opener. Jacob Germany led the Roadrunners with 24 points on 10 of 15 shooting in just 19 minutes on the floor while Jordan Ivy-Curry had 19 points with 3 threes and a pair of steals. Dhieu Deing added 13 points with 3 threes, 4 assists and 3 steals and Darius McNeill added 11 points with a team-high 6 assists to finish off the group of double-digit scorers for UTSA in the win. Cedrick Alley Jr. also added 6 points with a team-high 7 rebounds and Lachlan Bofinger added 6 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists in the win. As a team, UTSA shot 47.4% from the field, 30.4% from three and 72% from the foul line in the win.

The Oklahoma Sooners will also look to build on a season-opening win after a 77-59 win over Northwestern State last time out. Jalen Hill and Tanner Groves each had a team-high 15 points with 6 made field goals and a pair of threes with Groves adding 9 rebounds while Hill had 8 rebounds and 3 steals. Umoja Gibson added 13 points with 3 threes to cap off the trio of double-digit scorers for the Sooners in the win while Jordan Goldwire had 9 points with a team-high 4 assists. C.J. Noland also chipped in 9 points in 16 minutes off of the bench. As a team, Oklahoma shot 55.2% from the field, 36% from three and 36.4% from the foul line in the loss.

UTSA is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall and 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog while the under is 6-1 in their last 7 road games. Oklahoma is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games and 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games overall while the over is 6-2 in their last 8 Friday games.

I’m not overly fond of laying these big numbers with Oklahoma, but I’m also not looking to back UTSA in their current form. They lost their best player in Jhivvan Jackson from last year’s team, and a ton of that offense ran through him. Oklahoma has some solid pieces in their ranks and should be able to win this game by 20+ if they execute properly. Not rushing to bet this game though.
