Solid? Evans was damn brilliant today. I was an early critic of Evans, but he has had a great year and we are lucky to have him.
Watch that Ref closely.... he knew...
- Thread starter Original TULSAFAN
- Start date
Dane took it to a new level with the consistency of his passes. And he did it on a day he knew he would probably need to. Calm, cool, performance under pressure, in spades.
Probably forgotten in all this mess is the fact that Dane became the all-time leading passer in TU history today. I'm sure he doesn't care about that right now, but it's still a pretty amazing accomplishment considering all the great quarterbacks we've had and the two-year stretch of losing we endured during his freshman and sophomore seasons.

In these type of games, battle for top spot in conference late in season, there will ALWAYS be the "if that happened, if this happened". Bottom line, these games come down to one drive or one play late in the 4th, and a ref can and did determine the outcome of the game.
The ref simply blew it. And then the head ref did not have the balls to overturn such a huge play that would have gone against the home team, on Navy's Senior Day, a day after Veteran's Day.
You, I, and everyone who saw the play knows it was the wrong call.

Yep and he will likely pass Paul in total offense sometime during the next three games.
And Flanders and Brewer will Likely pass up the Palomino Express about the same time.
My guess is at home against Cincinnati for both of those records.
Flanders/Brewer need 329 yards to surpass Gunter/Lacy for most combined season yardage. Could happen against UCF but yeah, probably more likely against UC.
Evans needs 396 total yards to surpass Smith which could again happen against UCF but is also more likely in the season finale.
A few more records yet to fall and lots more movement on the school's various charts to come. Keevan Lucas is the big one to watch with one major 50-year record within reach (career receiving and another 50-year record possible with three monster games (season receiving). Both records, of course, are held by Howard Twilley.

The whistle came after the arms went up... for certain.
The arms went up after the strip... for certain.
The video evidence is unmistakable.
Anyone crying otherwise likely craps their own pants and doesn't know what day it is...

Either way, he was stopped short. It should've been turned over on downs. But the bitchass referee made up some invisible unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. And even so, it was AFTER the play, so we should still get the ball back again. Walk us back 15 yards, but it's not Navy's ball.
You are either deaf or a liar. Watch the video. The tape doesn't lie.
It was a great game but you guys don't need to come on here and lie. Looks bad. The league should suspend the crew and rescind the penalty on Brubaker with an apology to him.

Of all the fanbases I somehow excepted Navy was better than showing up after a game is already in the books to argue on the opponent message board.
Guess not.
Guess not.
I'm a ROTC ahole and think I'm pretty glorious...
Just making sure I hurt Navy fan's fee fees
Hey not all aholes have self esteem voids and tiny hands used to type game over troll attempts.
If the play was whistled dead before BRU had the ball why were the Navy RBs chasing Bruband tackling him? If it was after the whistle where's the 15 yard penalty for late hit/unnecessary roughness?
If the linesman came in and told the ref that forward progress was stopped, it CAN'T be reviewed regardless if there is evidence indicating otherwise. That's why officials are told to swallow your whistle until you're sure. You can always correct a late whistle, you almost certainly screw a team with a premature whistle.
Another unfortunate ramification (and apologies if someone has already mentioned this) but that loss killed our chances to potentially host the championship game, which is obviously a loss of revenue for the program. Don't know the economic impact that ends up being, but it certainly makes it even tougher to swallow the circumstances surrounding that final few seconds.

I don't see how the AAC can maintain delusions of P6 status when you have this kind of rinkydink bias crap going on. Want to be treated like a real conference? Then show professionalism and act like a real conference. As long as the games are a joke, decided on blatantly biased calls, then the conference will deserve to be treated like a joke. We're like the old jai alai league (good reference for old time Tulsans).
It's funny (well, not really I suppose) but us old school T-towners know way more about jai-alai than we should.
