17-2 at second media break! Anyone that think Fogelman is a HS gym should look at the arena they're playing in Jamaica. I think Tulane has an advantage because we're used to playing in a small, empty gym! Goes without saying, but “arena” is a bit of a misnomer. Most of these Caribbean tournaments a...

This is going to be — probably — the toughest league schedule we have played in 15 years maybe, since pre-2003 CUSA with Louisville, Marquette, Cincinnati, etc. Losses: @Temple, SMU, @Memphis, @SMU, @ECU, Temple, @Tulsa, @Houston, Memphis, @wichita, Cincy, @UCF Wins: Tulsa, UConn, Houston, USF, ECU,...

JV coach, JV results. 1.2 million dollars well spent But if we hired Andy Cannizaro to coach the 4th most important sport, all would be well in Greenie land. What a crock of sh*t post. Our 2017 team would beat our 2014 (N.O. Bowl) team by double digits. I sure wish we hired Dino Babers, Scott Frost...

To a certain extent, both sides are correct. On one hand, Tulane would not have the current recruits committed to it right now if it were in CUSA, and, on the other hand, most, if not all, of the CUSA programs could not defend Fritz's offense even if Fritz had to deal with lesser recruits. The latt...

Polls are polls - they are subjective and I don't really trust them. I'll say this, the Massey Composite index, which combines over 100 different computer rankings with different methodologies, has things as follows: Oklahoma: 8 Memphis: 23 USF: 31 Navy: 35 Houston: 41 SMU: 44 Army: 64 FIU: 77 Tulsa...

So they put Alabama in. Can they really leave an undefeated Georgia out? And hard to argue with a 12-1 ND and an undefeated Penn State. So lets say you go with undefeated GA and Penn St and one-loss ALA and ND. So where does that leave undefeated TCU, an undefeated Miami, and one loss Ohio State an...

When someone can show me a case where the best team in the country was not included in the 4-team playoff, I will reconsider. When high schools start travelling across the country for playoffs and conducting week-long media sessions, they can be compared to the NCAA. For the NFL, it's a profession....

That’s a really good point

Fritz system won’t be successful at the P5 level. You don’t see winning P5s running option. The best talent that aspire to play in the NFL will opt for pro style systems that best prepares them for pro ball. So he can go to Kansas have a couple of 4-8 or 6-6 type seasons with the occasional upset a...

I also think we're going to beat one of those teams we're not supposed to. USF is the game I would circle. It’s at home, and I honestly don’t think Flowers is going to beat us with his arm. They’re a good but flawed team. They make a lot of mental mistakes. They haven’t played a defense as good as ...

Lost 49-25 in the Dome in 2007. Lost 56-7 in Tulsa in 2008.

This is how other conference teams felt when they played against us from roughly 2005-2015

Little of both I think. Mostly I think Tulsa didn’t show up ready to play. Looks like they’re quitting.

But that said, this is what this offense CAN look like all the time when we get the right personnel.

Tulsa’s Defense has a late Bob Toledo-era feel to it. Could be a big day for our offense.

Gotta love the bye week

Crazy but because of this there’s now talk of paying the players directly. So once again bad behavior could be rewarded. :shock: Don’t be shocked if NIKE is also involved. My guess is this will cause a round of that "time to leave the NCAA and pay players" talk to start again in the media and the H...

The only way I'd extend him is if he has a winning season (which mean better than 6-6, and not 7-6 with a minor bowl victory) AND the extension included a clause that he pay back money if he leaves before the end of the contract. But again, we're 2-2 and have yet to accomplish anything worthy of an...

Interesting to see if anyone who got bent out of shape at this yells "WAVE!" over brave at the end of the anthem.

Everyone is too offended/triggered by other people's speech these days. I wouldn't care one way or the other.

Fritz would have been second guessed for not kicking the FG if we missed on the 4th and 1 at the six, but it was the right decision. I agree. I liked it too -- if you're going to tell your offense you're not sure if they can pick up that half yard, well, you're not going to get those tough yards in...

That was not pretty but it never is against Army, especially when they're good. They are a very tough team to play when they get ahead on time of possession and wear you down. It's a war of attrition at that point. They're gonna get their 8 minute drives, you just need to limit the damage. Still, we...

These are scheduled in advance. We are getting OU at home down the road in exchange for getting our teeth kicked in this year. You have to view it in that context. Maybe in 2021 we will also suck, but maybe we won't. You want to give your program those targets. I don't know why you'd do a three-gam...

Houston went up to OU and beat them last year and they remained in the hunt for a possible playoff game until a late falloff. Playing Oklahoma was great. Playing Ohio St will be great. The first Qtr “showed” you what we are capable of doing. If we beat Ohio St next year perhaps you’d feel different...

Robert, we're on the same page. I think the team is well ahead of where we were with CJ and Buffet Bob, even in the season that we went to the N.O. Bowl. That team should have won 10 games minimum with the ridiculous schedule they played and playing certain decent teams without key starters. At the...

TU 31
Army 27

Anyone interested in Oklahoma -26 at Baylor this weekend? Line started at -27.5 and all the money is being bet on OU, but the spread went down. If all the money is being bet on OU, the spread would not have gone down, Robert. As we know very well, the spread moves in order to try to get as much mon...
