I didn't realize that hosting a game was a pay to play thing. TU can beat both Creighton and Kentucky. Earlier this year in an exhibition with a weird format, TU beat Maryland in one session, tied another, and got hammered in the 3rd. TU's strength is its ability to counter quickly and get numbers forward quickly putting a lot of pressure on the back line. Their weakness, IMO, is a lack of aggressiveness in the back in attacking the ball as on ball defender and defending set pieces.You essentially have to let them know in advance if you are willing to eat the costs to pay for that and Tulsa doesnt have the money right now. Unlike at Creighton, there are bigger priorities right now. So if we only got screwed in the sense that we screw ourselves because we spend the money available to the program on bigger priorities.
Plus, we are lucky to be in the thing at all. Wisconsin only lost twice since September -- both to Number 1 Maryland. And ... didnt get in despite beating Creighton in Omaha 3-1. If there is screwage, it is Kentucky getting a first round bye out of Conference USA after loses to FIU, UAB and Furman. The tie to Lipscomb doesnt help their case either.
They can beat Creighton and should beat Kentucky, even though it is on the road. Playing at Number 1 Maryland after that, well... that's a challenge a player hopes they get the chance to take.
Cannot wait until the day I make good on the promise of buying everyone a keg, renting a smoker, then eating and drinking before the game like we are all going to the electric chair the next morning.Would've been a good year for TU to make the Cup, since it's Houston I believe. I would've met Huffy at the airport and then we'd buy that keg on our way to the venue. One of these days, man.
I'll bring the brisket, pork shoulders and ribs.Cannot wait until the day I make good on the promise of buying everyone a keg, renting a smoker, then eating and drinking before the game like we are all going to the electric chair the next morning.
