I have not but this makes me think they don't have much chance.
Oral Roberts heads into its Monday game against Missouri State with a 3-4 record. The Golden Eagles, who returned four starters from last year's 17-16 team that finished fifth in the Summit League with a 10-8 record, are 0-3 in true road games this season with losses at Missouri (74-68), Oregon State (55-42) and Weber State (62-61). They are averaging 64.4 points on .384 field goal, .286 3-point and .702 free throw shooting. Opponents are averaging 69.7 points on .459 field goal and .385 3-point shooting.
Guard Obi Emegano is averaging a team-high 17.6 points per game and ranks second with his 5.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists an outing. Emegano has already attempted 71 free throws (10.1 a game) and is shooting .803 from the charity stripe. Fellow redshirt-junior guard Korey Billbury averages 15.1 points and team highs of 6.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.9 steals. Sophomore guard Bobby Word contributes 7.7 points a contest and leads the squad with his 10 3-pointers (shooting .370 from behind the arc).
Head coach Scott Sutton is 290-197 (.595) in his 16th year as a collegiate head coach, all at ORU. He is the school's career wins leader. Assistant coach Wade Mason was a graduate manager on Oklahoma's staff during the 2011-12 season.
The part in bold is not going to win a lot of games.
