Why wouldn't you go for 2 there??
Do the math.
I think you have to go for 2 there.

I also want to know why we didn't go for 2... doesn't math

 

[TU1NNJ]

Let’s go D. Get them off the field.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Finally a drive where the offense looked good

 

[drboobay]

6 vs 5 not a big advantage.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Monty is shining after three quarters against A&M, with 3 points.

 

[cmullinsTU]

Special teams with a fantastic play!!!

 

[tulsahurricane0530]

Wow, td here to seal it!

 

[TU1NNJ]

Good job special teams

 

[TulsaAM]

FUMBLE!

 

[cmullinsTU]

I like seeing Cardell pulling the linemen out of the fighting/arguing to prevent a penalty.

Gary is looking good coming in and fresh.

 

[OKTornadoes]

Camden!

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Thanks for that N Illinois.

 

[tulsahurricane0530]

Another missed easy td pass

 

[TU1NNJ]

Let’s go D

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Good thing we didn't go for 2 and not make it.

 

[maverickfp]

what kinda short arm throw was that. goodness.

 

[OKTornadoes]

Another missed easy td pass

I am hoping Braxton isn't just waiting to hit the portal.

 

[I.I.]

Mistakes are killing both teams.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Good thing we didn't go for 2 and not make it.

Or, if we made it then the game is probably over now.

I hate playing for a FG there and doing two runs up the gut on 1st and 2nd down. It makes it an 8 point game which is technically 1 score.... not 2 scores as the announcers were saying.

 

[I.I.]

Couldn’t get kickoff into end zone.

 

[TulsaAM]

The infamous "skip pass"

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Shut em down, and force a punt!

 

[TulsaAM]

The one play was an outside run with your heavy back.. not the call in that situation

 

[tulsahurricane0530]

One more 1st down should just about do it

 

[HuffyCane]

If Williams goes 3/5 for 50 on this drive, forget everything I said …

 

[TulsaAM]

I am hoping Braxton isn't just waiting to hit the portal.

That is all Tulsa is now... once the player gets the experience and shows some promise, transfer to a winning program. The transfer portal will be the end of D1 football for many programs, not sure Tulsa will be one of them. Only time will tell.

 

[tulsahurricane0530]

Williams is young, probably didnt think hed be rushed into starting and playing already in his career. Needs to develop and has alot to learn still. Hopefully this experience will help with that

 

[TulsaAM]

That play call to the short side of the field was the wrong call, hasn't worked all game. Stack them up and let the bigs try it

In KW's defense, Williams does have 5 INTs on 45 passes. I hate playing conservatively too but sometimes discretion is the better part of valor, especially with the way our D has shut them down today.

 

[maverickfp]

ffs, sneak or wildcat.

 

[chito_and_leon]

LOL, I guess that's one benefit of him being injured half the season.

And still a bruised throwing hand.

No all passes are created equal. I don't even mind run plays.... just make it a run to the outside. Do a WR screen or something. There are about 1 million options besides run up the middle + run up the middle.

 

[drboobay]

If we win it will have been kind of patched together.

Really hoping our offense blossoms with Braxton.

 

[TU Pilot]

I guess holding calls aren't a thing anymore

 

[TulsaAM]

If we win it will have been kind of patched together.

Really hoping our offense blossoms with Braxton.

He threw 2 INTs in FOUR attempts out of the gate. Not sure he is the savior people think he might be

 

[maverickfp]

we're not gonna allow them to tie it are we?

 

[maverickfp]

alright. good job D. thankful for a win. albeit super ugly.

 

[TulsaAM]

Interception by RAY! I'll forgive the obvious holding call on their o-line
