03/12/2010 - Tulsa, OK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Randy Culpepper scored 21 points and Arnett Moultrie added 18 to pace No. 25 UTEP to a 75-61 win over Tulsa in the semifinal round of the Conference USA Tournament at the BOK Center.
Christian Polk and Derrick Caracter chipped in 13 and 10 points, respectively, for the top-seeded Miners (26-5), whose current winning streak of 16 games has them ranked for the first time since 1992.
UTEP will next face the winner of the Southern Miss/Houston matchup.
Justin Hurtt tallied a game-high 22 points, while Jerome Jordan posted 11 points and 15 rebounds for fifth-seeded Golden Hurricane (23-11), who were coming off tourney wins over Rice and Marshall.
Polk scored on three straight possessions in the early going to give UTEP a 15-4 lead less than six minutes into the game.
The margin reached 35-19 after a pair of Moultrie buckets late in the opening half, which ended with six straight Tulsa points to make it a 10-point game.
Shortly after the break, Culpepper drained a three-pointer to spark a 7-0 run, as an overmatched Golden Hurricane club made just one field goal over the first six minutes of the second stanza.
Claude Britten's dunk capped the spurt to make it 49-29 with under 14 minutes left.
UTEP continued to lead by double-digits until Bryson Pope's layup finished off a 11-1 flurry to cut Tulsa's deficit to 69-61 with just over two minutes left.
That bucket proved Tulsa's last, as UTEP held on for the win.
Game Notes
The Miners swept a pair of meetings from the Hurricane during the regular season...UTEP forced 18 turnovers while committing 11...The Miners shot 51.9 percent from the floor, compared to 39.6 percent from Tulsa.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
