I have started watching them on TV recently due to the lack of other interesting sports and programming in the summer.

It has been interesting to see them transform their team mid-season and find their way to a four game win streak. It has been a case study in how little possession means in this game and how much a few tough, fast players who can time their runs well can have an oversized impact. That and a good GK on one end and a striker with a nose for goal on the other are truly golden. Much better results than they were getting with their more stylistic predecessors.

Just as I feared... January 6th is going to become a Beerhall Putsch for Trump and his insane followers.

This is exactly why Trump should have been convicted when he was impeached.

The forecast high temperature for Saturday afternoon's homecoming game is 88 degrees. Glad I bought the good sunscreen this year.

Yikes..

During the Temple game the TU promotional video was shown. It was the same except one or two of the students were different. Struck me as interesting to why? Usually after a couple of years we go with a different video and students so why not this time? Also we were showing the other students as recently as two weeks ago. Did they graduate, enter the transfer portal, demand NIL money, go on academic probation, …..? When the game goes as poorly as they have been then I start paying attention to other aspects of the broadcast.

Poor game plan. Make up your mind at QB. Offensive line is weakest part of the team. They cannot protect the QB. Defense gave up some big plays but 20 points and we should win. Still think the DC is over his head. Part of Temple’s game plan was to hold our WRs which they did in the first half without getting called. Time for a change.

On the latest Eye of the Hurricane Podcast, the TU FB press conference, with Head Coach Kevin Wilson and players Gavin Potter and Anthony Watkins:

Any solutions? All I get is a table of contents and redirection notices that fail.

I predict TU will win...

Any word on how basketball scrimmage went couple days ago?

ECU has fired their HC

No comparison to our situation, just looking for reaction to a Coaching record and how you would respond if you were the AD. How long would you stick with a coach with the following record?
Year 1. 2-9
Year 2. 3-8
Year 3. 6-5
Year 4. 6-5
Year 5. 5-6
Year 6. 2-9
Would you dismiss after year 2, 3, ….?

Was disappointed with the TU apparel selection. My understanding is that TU is not easy to work with on the licensing 🙁

At this point, I am saying yes...

a national TV News station was reporting on a fire in the hills in southern Arizona, just 14 miles north of the State Capital in Tucson.

I love calling a QB keeper from the shotgun on 4th and 1 instead of a sneak and pushing the pile.*

There are usually games in the season where a team can't afford to lose. This game for Tulsa against Temple is one of them. If Tulsa (2-4, 0-2 AAC) is going to have any realistic chance of at least being a .500 team and going to a bowl, winning at Temple Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field is essential.

Are we going to beat Bye this week?
Most years there are a lot of predictions of the final score.
I think we will win.

There is a rivalry from the Tulsa area listed.

The Tulsa Golden Hurricane and the Temple Owls meet Saturday in college football action from Lincoln Financial Field. Here’s a Temple vs Tulsa prediction. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best Temple vs Tulsa pick.

Tulsa Golden Hurricane Betting Preview​

Tulsa kicked off the year with a 62-28 blowout win over Northwestern State, then lost 28-24 to Arkansas State and 45-10 versus Oklahoma State in the next pair. The Hurricane beat Louisiana Tech 23-20 in overtime then lost to North Texas 52-20 in a blowout.

Tulsa’s latest outing was another loss, this time to Army. The Hurricane gave up 35 points across the second and third quarters for a 49-7 blowout defeat. QB Kirk Francis threw for just 84 yards, and Cooper Legas rushed 17 times for 81 yards and a score to lead the rush.

Temple Owls Betting Preview​

Over on the Temple side, they got off to an 0-3 start this year, stumbling out of the gate. The Owls were beaten by Oklahoma 51-3, Navy 38-11 and Coastal Carolina 28-20 before a 45-29 win over Utah State. Game five was another loss, this time 42-14 to Army.

In the UConn matchup back on October 5, the Owls were down 16-13 going into the fourth quarter and ended up losing 29-20. Forrest Brock posted 136 yards with an interception. Terre Worthy carried 12 times for 95 yards, and Dante Wright caught eight balls for 67 yards.

Temple vs Tulsa Prediction​

I’ll lean toward Tulsa I suppose. The Hurricane had some trouble against a good Army team in their last outing, giving up 481 total yards (321 rushing) and 10.5 yards per play. Tulsa posted just 268 yards (109 passing) and 3.7 yards per play on the other side. That makes 24 or fewer points in five straight games.

As for Temple, they had eight penalties, three turnovers, 270 yards (136 passing) and 16 first downs in a pretty limp effort versus UConn in their last game. The Owls defense was pretty good though, and kept the team in the game. I like Tulsa slightly better cover/win-wise in this matchup, but you could make a case either way.

Since we are seeing an increasing number of firebombings related to pro-abortion activists, I thought I would just go ahead and create a thread to keep track of them all, since the legacy media is basically ignoring these stories.

Two firefighters injured, $150,000 damage in NY. No pregnant women inside at the time.

No suspects. Presumed peaceful protesters likely involved.
