How about some DEFENSE MAYBE. Just giving up huge chunks of yards

 

[Air_Raid918]

Trent Martin can't pass defend...Need Petera in for him. Where is Suits is he hurt?

 

[dvctulsa]

Getting our asses kicked now

 

[Air_Raid918]

Why no Bishop Louie on offense

 

[Air_Raid918]

Where is jeremy smith

 

[TulsaAM]

That pass should never have been thrown. I would be upset with Evans, but this is the first time in his college career he's actually had a good coach working with him.

Turnovers......gun to head.....can't win with -4

If Dane continues to throw Int's not so sure Montomery will stay with him. He may try to find a QB that doesn't throw so many.

Where is jeremy smith

Smith injured early 1st quarter

 

[Loca5174]

Well can't watch no more of this. Gonna watch temple since they are going to beat Penn State. Get some school work done

 

[Air_Raid918]

Really Hobbs? How do you drop that? Would like to see more Nigel Carter or Atkinson for Hobbs. And Louie has not seen the field on offense which is strange. Alright field goal down need a stop

 

[dvctulsa]

Bye Bye

 

[TUGrad06]

Sit Dane.

 

[chito_and_leon]

I'm surprised we didn't go for it on 4th and 6 at the FAU 41, down by 10. Seems like that's the kind of mojo we need to get back.

 

[chito_and_leon]

Sit Dane.

We've scored 35 points in 3 quarters. His 3 TOs are bad - but this isn't an offense issue. If you're losing when you're on pace to score 48, the QB ain't the guy to blame.

Decision process can hopefully be improved through coaching/film study. I don't see a change being made after this game.

I will agree with you about 75 percent. When you know you have a suspect defense then you need your offense to step up. When you have 4 tour overs and they have points off of them then yeah I'm blaming the QB

Agree. These are two high pressure offensive teams and in this heat (add 10 degrees on the turf) the defense will wilt. Tulsa does look to be the better conditioned team at this point and the defense has done better than I expected.

 

[chito_and_leon]

Dane's 3 TOs aren't to blame for the D. His first INT maybe contributed to their first TD but his others were harmless in terms of them scoring. Maybe cost us some points but that's not our issue today.

Schnellie coached at FAU. Maybe the reason they have all these cramps is that the Gatorade coolers are full of Cutty Shark and Jim Beam. Instead of an IV, they give you a cigar.

 

[chito_and_leon]

And what got us back into the game? The D. FAU had scored on 5 straight possessions and were up 10. The D got 3 straight stops and it's tied.

 

[TUGrad06]

We lose here. Our d just has no talent

 

[panicstricken]

God d....n this is painful.

Why didnt skaterboy put his head down and try and get a first down?

 

[barrister1602]

Sit Dane.

Wrong

 

[panicstricken]

Nice hold....

I guess.

 

[panicstricken]

Come on skaterboy

 

[Loca5174]

Well 1:48 left. What's gonna happen?

 

[TUGrad06]

Haha. Dane just lays down. No playmaking ability. Hes playing against 4th string dbs...

 

[TUGrad06]

Nice to see from our kicker. Strong work.

 

[dvctulsa]

OT Let's some fun!

 

[TUGrad06]

Come on skaterboy

Which one? Dane or the kicker?

 

[TulsaAM]

Here we go...

 

[panicstricken]

HELL YES!@!!!!!

 

[TUGrad06]

Gj Langer. Mr bowling ball. Sheesh. Way to go d. Way to go kicker.

 

[chito_and_leon]

Game tracker conked out for our last drive and OT so I'm not sure exactly what happened but I'm guessing it won't get Dane benched

 

[TulsaAM]

It's a win! Hard fought game and very proud of how the team bounced back. Mistakes can be fixed, you can't coach "Want To"!

Agree 100%!! Down 38-28 and having given up scores on 5 straight drives it would have been easy to throw in the towel. But instead the D stiffened up and the O kept coming through! Huge win for a team that needs the get confidence back!

Big congratulations to Montgomery on his first head coaching win!

 

[TUBballJunkie]

Wow that was a gritty win.

Vegas knows what it's doing too.

 

[astonmartin708_rivals]

I'm just going to say, I had the game being decided by 3 in the predictions thread (in the Alley) and that's what it ended up being.

Where is jeremy smith
