TULSA, Okla. (AP) _ Oral Roberts confirms Wednesday that it will play Oklahoma State in the All-College Classic this December, pitting two of Eddie Sutton's sons against each other.

The Dec. 20 game on a neutral court in Oklahoma City will be the first time Scott Sutton of ORU and Sean Sutton of OSU will coach against one another.

The Golden Eagles pulled off one of college basketball's biggest upsets last season by beating third-ranked Kansas on its home court.

In other featured games on Oral Roberts' schedule this season, the Golden Eagles will play at Arkansas on Dec. 1, at Texas on Dec. 18 and host crosstown rival Tulsa on Nov. 27.

The defending Mid-Continent Conference champions will also play in the NIT Season Tip-Off in November.

Oral Roberts went 23-11 last season and made its second trip to the NCAA tournament in the past three years. The Golden Eagles lose top scorers Caleb Green and Ken Tutt from that squad.
