Depends on whether Abmas is hitting.
4 going here
 
They almost had a sellout for their last game so it should be a large crowd. ORU has been waiting for this game for two years. My ticket is above ORU bench as it gave me no other choice.
 
Enjoy the big win over the pretend school on south Lewis.
 
I was thinking of going but not sure I can stomach that crowd. Might be different if we were 6-0.
 
I have a big deal tomorrow. Can’t go.

Tul$a 68
Not Tulsa 62
 
So far their wins are over SW Christian, Haskell, and Rogers State. They couldn't even beat 1-6 Central Arkansas.

Despite OSU's horrible 3 pt shooting I'm surprised to see them in that close of a game with them. They lost by 29 to Colorado St.

I'm sure it will be a close game, like OSU, at least for part of the game. They/Phipps will be up for us. But we should win.
 
Who knows. Haith has inexplicable losses sometimes so no arrogance here.
 
I agree
I watched the OSU game
The energy from ORU was amazing
OSU was tentative but took a nice 9 point lead under 10 then sat on it until ORU had a chance at the buzzer
Phipps wide open for 3 and choked
 
I have a big deal tomorrow. Can’t go.

Last time I saw “Barrister” was in the Mabee Center watching a TU beat down of ORU….speaking of a “big deal”.
 
The crowd was half orange but the ORU students were active
 
I didn’t say it was a hard deal. I have a big deal. What’s the big deal?

 
I watched the TU women pound the South Lewis Titans on their channel. All I need to do is mute the awful announcing team they have.
 
I watched the ORU/OSU game on their website. It was actually a pretty decent broadcast.
 
Abmas went 7-12 outside the arc while OSU shot 12% from three and ORU still lost. We play a decent game and we should win.
The key won't be stopping Absmas, it will be limiting every other player from having an impact.
 
Don't believe it but Sagarin has Tulsa winning by three!!!!

GO TU!!!
 
Welp, for us out of towners it looks like we are going to be crossing our fingers that ORU's version of "no access" works, since the game isn't on TV. https://oruathletics.com/watch/?Live=189&type=Live

I don't mind playing ORU, but if we can't even get the game on ESPN+ we should never play at ORU.
Did not realize you were an out of towner.

Time to come back and be part of the City of Tulsa revival:)

I have a dream that one day I’ll be a Tulsan again. I lived in or around Tulsa my entire life until the past 4 years. I don’t have much family so we moved to St Louis so my kids could be closer to my wife’s family.

That being said I’m convinced the world is mad I moved…

1. Rams were my favorite NFL team… the week I signed papers on my house in STL they announced their move to LA.
2. Since I moved, Tulsa has laxer laws on alcohol and marijuana than St Louis and lower crime rate.
3. They added the midtown park that is miles ahead of the best parks here, put together.
 
ORU has 3 point shooters. We have defense that play to their strength. Not just Abmas.

My in laws are in St. Louis (south county) and we were there this past weekend for Thanksgiving.

1) Kroenke is an ass
2) St Louis has some really good craft beers and liquor stores seem to stock more than OK (OK still has weird laws that some of the non-OK distributors don't want to deal with)
3) Forest Park is pretty damn cool IMO...I like the Gathering Place but the StL Zoo is one of my absolute favorites and you can't beat free admission

Don't get me wrong, I love Tulsa...there's a reason I stayed here rather than moving back to Boston after graduation. StL does have some really cool things about it though

Oh, no doubt, I’m not mad we moved here. I’m just convinced there’s a conspiracy by Oklahoma that it decided to get much cooler once I left.

Also, I’m pretty sure we discussed it before and I think your in-laws live miles away from me (what a small world!)

I do love Forest Park, the Zoo, and the Children’s Museum (or as I like to call it, a death trap).

Was in St Louis a couple of summers ago and saw Paint Your Wagon at the MUNI in Forest Park. Cool place. We had a blast in St Louis.

GO TU!!!

Forest Park's awesomeness is seconded.

I went to St. Louis for a conference in 2019, and stayed at the Chase Park Plaza Hotel right on the NE corner of the park. I arrived in the late afternoon and thought, "I'll go for a quick run in that nice big park across the street". I knew nothing about St. Louis or Forest Park and thought I'd just run along the outside of it all the way around.

7 miles later it is dark and I am seriously second guessing myself and wondering if I somehow got totally lost and am nowhere near my hotel. That's when I finally saw it coming up.

The park is huge. My wife and I got engaged in the zoo during Christmas time with all the lights. Always holds a special memory for us.

My Dad and sister were born in St. Louis and my Mom went to high school there. Went there every summer and Christmas when I was growing up. Great Italian restaurants on "The Hill". Everybody in St. Louis knows the real name of that neighborhood, but you're not supposed to say it.
I don't think anyone mentioned it, but they also have the greatest baseball team in the history of the National League.

I don't know the real name of The Hill. They do have some great restaurants there. And my wife always jokes that when two people from StL meet each other away from StL the first question is "Where did you go to HS". Seems almost everyone I have met, if they are male, went to SLU HS, and if they are female, they went to Cor Jesu, especially if they played soccer. My wife is a Flyer by the way
