    Official OSU Prediction Thread

    We're now in a very different century. Between 1900 to 1999, Tulsa was the 45th winningest program in major college football, and Oklahoma State was 87th. Between 2000 to 2019, Oklahoma State is the 24th winningest program, and Tulsa is 76th. If you count the last decade (2010 to 2019), OSU is...

    Official OSU Prediction Thread

    OSU returns ten starters on defense. OSU is the first program in NCAA history to return both a former Biletnikoff finalist and a Doak Walker finalist on the same team. Playing before about 14,000 fans will feel like a huge crowd to the Hurricane. The TU defense will fall back on what got them...

    OSU @ TU -- Tulsa must fire on all cylinders to beat OSU on Saturday

    The penalty you cite was clearly against the rules. College linemen (any of them) may not drift more than 3 yards past the line of scrimmage. In the Pros, it's only one. There has always been a tendency for Art Briles teams, and those that emulate his system, to abuse this rule. Briles got...

    OSU @ TU -- Tulsa must fire on all cylinders to beat OSU on Saturday

    I also thought you had a chance to win. You were predicted to have about a 20% chance (4 to 1 against). It was about the same chance UCLA had to beat Oklahoma. You even had us concerned for a half. But you guys got out coached. Gundy and crew went in at half time and made a simple defensive...

    OSU @ TU -- Tulsa must fire on all cylinders to beat OSU on Saturday

    TU only scored 17 points against the OSU starters. The last TD came against the second team and Freshmen in the fourth quarter garbage time. Also, while it's true that OSU's wins over ORST and McNeese aren't impressive in and of themselves, but it should be noted that Gundy and Co. have been...

    T. Boone died

    It's more likely that Coach Gundy is going to tell them not to even think about losing this game. Make it a tribute to Mr. Pickens. Go out and kick some Hurricane butt for the old man! That type of thing. No way they're going to be complacent for the game following his death. No looking past TU...

    First you need to score 21 points. In the 28 games Mason Rudolph has started at QB, OSU has never scored less than 20. If the Cowboys score 36, the game is very likely over. In the 28 games Mason Rudolph has started at QB, OSU hasn't lost once when the Cowboys scored 36 or more points. Tulsa...

    Since you guys are so responsive to stimuli, here's something I posted on one of our boards: 8) Let's talk wide receivers. Here's a list of TU's and OSU's returning receivers who have caught at least one pass in college football and their career production...

    You guys keep forgetting that you are just a G5 program, playing in a G5 conference against predominantly G5 competion.

    Q: How many TU students does it take to change a tire? A: Two. One to hold the drinks and pot and the other to call Daddy!

    osu, what to expect?

    Wow. It IS true. Better to have one stunning loss that wasn't really a loss, early in the season, than to go all year, beating subpar teams, and then strutting and preening that you're double digit winners, with such an embarrassing caveat attached to it. At least we beat West Virginia...

    Is it true that out of Tulsa's 10 wins last year, that only one game (Memphis) was against a team that finished with a winning record?

    osu, what to expect?

    But you...you are the pinnacle of objectivity! No fan boy in blue and gold, you. Athlon's rankings also included multiple G5 programs. You're just feeling an unusually virulent episode of butt hurt that they don't drink the same Kool-Aid you gulp down. As for my TU bona fides, I spent many...

    osu, what to expect?

    I agree. Not all eight of them. Does TU go two-deep at every back seven position? This is TU's problem with OSU in a nutshell. Their starting 22 can match up fairly well with OSU's starting 22, but a Top 12 P5 program like the Pokes or Sooners will just wear them down with depth. In 2015, Tulsa...
