Sucks watching the school and programs atrophy, but it's the age of semi-pro NCAA teams and a small liberal art college ain't gonna survive.

I hate everything OSU and want to beat them every year, but I was over this loss in the second quater...

That's not my fault or my lack of love for the school, it's the horrific handling of the school by the administration over the past 30 years.

I gave my 6 year old son the option to go race his car this weekend over attending the OSU game. He asked me if I was crazy. He said we're going to the game 🤣.

Most probably wont see this as a big deal, but he wanted to quit playing baseball because we parked his racing program to compete in summer tournaments. Which led directly into Football and fall baseball. So he knows racing is almost never going to happen anytime soon.

For him to make that decision melted my heart.

His love for TU athletics at such a young age really keeps me going sometimes when I don't feel like putting in the effort.

It's about time we fire this... oh... wait... damnit

Look at what Kinne is doing for Texas State. Up 28-3 against a good UTSA team.

He very well might be in the playoff this year. Huge miss on our side not hiring him.

From section 117...

GOLDEN!

Last week I posted that TU was going to have a “tough” game against ASU. All the homers bashed those comments. I knew that ASU didn’t play 4-5 starting lineman against UCA.

Two to three critical plays cost TU the game. Strip out 2-3 plays. It drives coaches insane. Looking at OSU. Arkansas absolutely wiped OSU all over the floor except on the scoreboard. Here are 5 keys to a TU victory:

1. Bringing Carnell off the bench more to add another dimension to the chess match.
2. Clean up the special teams. No missed kicks and kicking game defenders stay in their lanes.
3. Minimal penalties.
4. A consistent push up front and having solid running game.
5. A credible run defense. The OSU line is very well coached, very big, but they start 5 offensive guards.

Any team can be beat. Any team. I was glued to the Northern Illinois/Notre Dame last Saturday. OSU just doesn’t see this coming.

TU 31-28 over OSU in a thriller.

So it appears I have been MIA for a while. Truth is, NIL and transfer portal has just about killed by excitement about college sports. Please, let this be a successful year to renew my faith in the whole thing.

Based on absolutely nothing:

TU 34
NW St 18

Bonus Kendall Prediction: There won't be a QB starter controversy after this game, it will be Kirk's job to lose.

Tulsa (1-1) is looking to turn back the clock to the 1982-1998 time period when Tulsa was 6-2 at home against OSU. The Golden Hurricane will get their chance when TU hosts No. 13 Oklahoma State on Skelly Field at H.A. Chapman Stadium on Saturday at 11 a.m.

Hey Indians fans: I was wrong. You guys beat our ass. I am munching crow tonight. We will likely only win 4 games this year. More of the same bs.

Wonder if they try to pick off any AAC schools?

From Pat Forde at SI:

Oklahoma State Cowboys at Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Series: 76th meeting, Oklahoma State leads 43–27–5. There was a time when Tulsa held the upper hand against the school 65 miles west, but few are alive who remember it. The Hurricane haven’t beaten the Pokes this century.

Fascinating result tonight. The theocracy candidate finishes third and out of the runoff. The two remaining candidates would both be good options IMO. Our TU football alum got the most votes including mine. Razor thin margins all around.

This looks like a rough week in the AAC as only 2 out of 12 games are favored by league teams. FAU and South Florida are the only favorites. Navy and Army both have the weekend off.

It’s criminal for the officials to take the game away from the players like that. Awful call.

I don’t know what to think about this team but I’m not very happy.

And the TU beat writer?

Lose at home to BYU 18-15

Typically the second game of the season isn’t considered must win, but this game has that feel.
