TU at NIU Game Thread

[TU1NNJ]

Presley drops two in a row. 3 and out.

 

[TU Pilot]

And a sack. Solid.

 

[I.I.]

#5 cannot catch an open pass it seems. Might look for someone else. Good defensive hold.

 

[TU1NNJ]

We hold. 4 and out.

 

[Henry Kendall]

Presley does not have good hands. This staff does not use him to best advantage. Put him in the backfield, pitch him the ball.

 

[TU1NNJ]

Crap. INT.

 

[Henry Kendall]

Pick. Ugh. Early game pants-crapping continues

 

[TulsaAM]

Hey LOOK! A Tulsa QB threw an interception, you NEVER see that.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Ummm...
Here in person.
Describing Tulsa as SLOW is a giant understatement.

Tulsa is slow. Very slow.

 

[TulsaAM]

Yep, that's targeting and he will be gone

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Said 1 turnover, Tulsa probably won't win.
2 turnovers, Tulsa likely won't win.

Still can't get over how slow these kids are.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

This team doesn’t start playing until the second quarter…..4 games in a row.

 

[TU 1978]

Yep, that's targeting and he will be gone

That’s bullsh1t.

 

[loca2874]

Not a very good start to the game. Officials can’t get jersey numbers right after looking at the review

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Ummm...

Describing Tulsa as SLOW is a giant understatement.

Tulsa is slow. Very slow.

On TV, Tulsa looks like the faster team.

 

[TU1NNJ]

We hold

 

[TulsaAM]

2 turnovers, Tulsa likely won't win.

That is what the transfer portal will do to schools like Tulsa... anyone they develop after finding a diamond in the rough will transfer out to a better school. Do you think Collins would have stayed at TU after his sophomore year?

 

[TU Pilot]

I think we got a hand on that

 

[I.I.]

No one wants to win. Both teams struggling.

 

[TulsaAM]

That’s bullsh1t.

Nope, he lowered his head. He didn't hit the QB really, he pushed him with his hands. But you dip your head and make contact, you are gone.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

I was screaming NOONAN during the FGA...
Lady in front of me left...
I'm doing my part.

 

[TU1NNJ]

I think we have negative yards so far. 0 passing and -13 rushing.

 

[TulsaAM]

No one wants to win. Both teams struggling.

We still have 2 or 3 more interceptions to throw before the offense gets going

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Well...
I hate being right.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Wow. Completely unprepared and undisciplined start for the offense.

 

[jesterondirt]

FFS

 

[TU1NNJ]

Unbelievable another turnover in the red zone. Protect the ball.

 

[I.I.]

We still have 2 or 3 more interceptions to throw before the offense gets going

It was a fumble instead.

 

[I.I.]

Game should be 0-0 at the half.

 

[Henry Kendall]

It was a fumble instead.

A distinction without a difference. Lol

 

[TulsaAM]

We still have 2 or 3 more interceptions to throw before the offense gets going

I stand corrected, 1 or 2 more turnovers. How many fumbles is that now? 60? Reminds me of the Gus Frerotte years

 

[Tulsafanzz]

We now have 10 1st quarter turnovers in our first 4 games. That’s an amazingly bad stat.

We did start moving the ball. Put Watkins back in at RB.

 

[TU Pilot]

SAFETY!

 

[TU1NNJ]

Defense scores. Safety

 

[Weatherdemon]

Safety. Thank gawd the defense showed up.

 

[I.I.]

Game should be 0-0 at the half.

Take it back 2-0 at the half.

 

[Henry Kendall]

Safety. This is almost unwatchable it’s so bad, for both teams.

 

[TulsaAM]

YES! A SAFETY by the TU Defense. Given how these two offenses have performed, both teams might be scoring in bunches of 2's LOL

 

[Henry Kendall]

YES! A SAFETY by the TU Defense. Given how these two offenses have performed, both teams might be scoring in bunches of 2's LOL

That would be damn funny, a final score of 4-2.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

I’ll take a first quarter lead, any way we can get it! Kopenski & Ostroski are playing well.
