Although it was obvious UAB has a better team than Tulsa, the possibility of an upset was there. But TU would have had to play a game with fewer mistakes. Too many missed free throws arenāt going to cut it. Tulsa missed eight consecutive free throws early in the second that could have made a huge difference when the Golden Hurricane was surging. As a result, UAB took advantage, and pulled ahead for a 78-68 win over Tulsa in a game that was closer than the final score indicated Wednesday night in front of an announced crowd of 2,687 (actual around 800) at the Reynolds Center.
