TU vs Arkansas State Game Thread

[TU_BLA]

15 minutes to kick and we’re looking at a crowd smaller than Glenpool vs Bixby

 

[jesterondirt]

Yeah the east side maybe has 1500 people, 1000 of which are wearing red.

No excuse for this. Shame on the city of Tulsa.

 

[goldenhurricane2]

No student presence at all. Wtf is going on with the students?

 

[TUGrad06]

How is that a touchback?!

 

[jesterondirt]

Filling out a little better now. Lets go win

 

[jesterondirt]

How is that a touchback?!

Pretty sure if the ball breaks the plane of the goalline (without being touched) its an automatic Touchback. Curious as to what the television announcers are saying

Even if the receiving team touches it after it bounces out? Ah well. We get a TO anyway. GJ defense!

 

[TUGrad06]

Nice precise passing so far.

 

[TUGrad06]

Bad decision there, take off Luke, you had field in front of you!

 

[TUGrad06]

Nice scramble Luke!

 

[nevadanatural]

We’ve made a ton of 4th down conversions so far this year.

 

[TUGrad06]

Hey coach, ya derp. Read option, speed option, RPO, pass, anything but the exact same play over and over. Finally not a run up the middle. Good block Neph.

It’s automatically dead if it touches the turf in the end zone.

 

[TU 1978]

Pink poodles don’t look so good.

That must just be a college rule... you can recover a kick for a TD in the NFL.

 

[URedskin54]

Never a fan of rushing 3 on third down. If we're going to run a 3/3/5 we need to be bringing someone almost every play

 

[jesterondirt]

Their running back is quick

 

[TUGrad06]

AWESOME defense by whitfield. PERFECT play.

 

[TUBballJunkie]

WHAT are these announcers talking about that we don’t have enough depth to practice full tackle football during the week.

Is this new???

 

[astonmartin708]

Monty has to have a bit more confidence in Skipper throwing the ball. They knew we were going to run on 3rd and 4. Give Skipper a chance to make the play through the air or with his legs. They're selling out to stop the run right now.

New college rule this year.

And if the ball hits the end zone on the kick it’s automatically dead. New this year

 

[TUGrad06]

3rd and 4 or less is a good time to PA pass it deep or PA slant or something with single coverage.

 

[nevadanatural]

We’ve had good broadcasts on cbscs before but so far this isn’t one of them. The announcers aren’t particularly good, the scoreboard had games with scores not close to reality, and they were speculating on potential winners for games already completed.

 

[TU 1978]

Good effort so far.

Poodles will be gassed by third quarter.

 

[t-townpod]

Why does Monty like the Rader ish tempo

 

[nevadanatural]

Skipper still needs to learn some pocket presence. He was rattled by the guy going by and scrambled into the rush. He still had a good pocket if he had only realized it.

 

[Chris Harmon]

TieNeal Martin already has six tackles. Thomas Bennett averaging 50.5 yds on his two punts.

 

[t-townpod]

There offense is nice

 

[Chris Harmon]

ASU has just about doubled Tulsa's yards to this point 128 to 69. TU averaging 1.8 yards per rush at the moment.

 

[TU_BLA]

#6 is about 5’7 and he just ran through 6 guys for a 1st down. Tackle a damn leg

 

[Tulsafanzz]

No excuse for this. Shame on the city of Tulsa.

If we wait until kickoff (or tip-off in b-ball) before trashing crowd size, our complaints will be more accurate. The pregame concerts make our normally late arriving crowds even later. BTW, pretty good student crowd in 107 & 108.

 

[Tulsafanzz]

Second game in a row the refs field mic. does not work properly. That’s gotta be on us.

 

[astonmartin708]

Hey commentator... it's not a Tampa 2. It shares very little with a Tampa 2. Please stop.

 

[old.guy]

Four-yard passes and two-yard runs are not going to win this game. Our vaunted offensive line is being shoved around by a Sunbelt Conference defensive line.

 

[TUGrad06]

Poor poor tackling. Maybe we should hit each other in practice during the week...

 

[TU_BLA]

Why do we insist on arm tackling up high on everyone? Every defensive player should be forced to carry one of the leg lamps from A Christmas Story and hug it so they can learn what it feels like to wrap up a leg

 

[TUBballJunkie]

My first chance to actually watch a game this year.

Jeb Bush is higher energy than this team.

I won’t be talking any crap at UH, that’s for sure.

Thanks for the lecture and setting me straaight.
