****UCF @ Tulsa

[Skip Towne]

Central Florida at Tulsa - 7:15 ESPN Directv ch. 206 I haven't seen Tulsa play this year but I keep hearing what a great offense they have. We'll see.

[Skip Towne]

Nobody wants to watch this game?

[notorious]

Sorry Skip T. Gooooooooo Cane!!!!!

[notorious]

Touchdown!!!

[Skip Towne]

7-0 Tulsa. Tulsa scored in 38 seconds of their 2nd possession.

[notorious]

Wow it looks like the stadium is full again. As good as Tulsa's offense is, that would be pretty good entertainmanet value. $12 a ticket GA is hard to beat.

[Skip Towne]

Tulsa has a white WR named "Slick".

[notorious]

I listened to an interview of TU's head coach Todd Grahm last week. They asked him why his offense is so effective. He responded by saying that they want to make the defense as uncomfortable as possible by having a very fast pace and making unpredictable playcalling. Tulsa utilizes all the things that he hated to prepare for and defend against when he was a defensive coordinator.


Makes a lot of sense. Maybe we should send Herm a copy of the interview.

[Coach]

If I had cable, I would deftinaly be watching this game.

[notorious]

I wonder how UCF's former running back Kevin Smith is doing at Detroit. He was a stud last year, and absolutely killed Tulsa in both games.

[Skip Towne]

Tulsa again 14-0

[notorious]

Touchdown!!!!!

That is the result of a good offense going against no defense.

[notorious]

Damn, Brian Waters got a lot thinner and a lost faster LOL

14-7 Tulsa

Herm wouldn't coprehend it. Somebody would have to explain it to him.

[chiefs1111]

Tulsa put up 77 last week against Utep and won 77-35. which is funny cause at one point the score was tied 28-28 early in the 2nd quarter of that game

[notorious]

After they explained it to Herm, he would have to check the tape, explain that Tulsa has good football players that make good football plays, but in the end Tulsa plays arena ball.

[notorious]

Outstanding kick. Tulsa 14 UCF 10 in a defensive battle.

[notorious]

Fumble. Dammit.

[Skip Towne]

Sounds about right. Herm can't pick his nose without looking at the tape.

[Skip Towne]

Tulsa looks like a monkey fucking a football.

[Deberg_1990]

Sunday Night College football??

Im assuming this is because there is no NFL tonight?

[Coach]

Sunday Night College football??

Yeah, because the Saints/Chargers game was played at London, and the fact that there's the MLB WS game.

[notorious]

Ass chewing at halftime. Tulsa is doing everything they can to fuck the 1st half up.

[tk13]

Plus, I'm sure Tulsa took it just to get the ESPN exposure. Although it is a bit strange playing a game after the polls have all come out.

[notorious]

Goodness, O'Leary looks like hell. Is he worried that UCF is checking his job application again?

[Deberg_1990]

Yea, i thought the same thing.

[Skip Towne]

Goodness, O'Leary looks like hell. Is he worried that UCF is checking his job application again?

What does this mean?

[Skip Towne]

Tulsa takes 2nd half kickoff and scores in 3 plays. ET: 56 seconds

[notorious]

What does this mean?

O'Leary left Georgia Tech for Notre Dame, lied on his ap about a few things and was fired a few days after being hired.

He physically looks like hell, too.

O'Leary is a pretty good coach, and probably would have did well at Notre Dame.

I remember that incident. Didn't know it was O'Leary.

[notorious]

Unfortunately that should not be a change of possesion.

[notorious]

Touchdown Cane. 28-19

[Skip Towne]

Another quick TU score. 28-19

[notorious]

Awesome call since they got it, stupid if they didn't, but offsides on kicking team.

[Skip Towne]

Where's that UCF Golden Knight dude?

[notorious]

Where's that UCF Golden Knight dude?

I seen him posting on another thread earlier.

Pretty amazing the diversity of fans we have here on The Planet.

[tk13]

Conference USA is historically stronger than the MAC because they used to have teams like Louisville. But not this year, these announcers can stick it.

[Skip Towne]

TU again. 35-19

[notorious]

Touchdown Hurricane. 35-19

It is said that how you adjust at half-time shows how good/bad of coaching is involved.

Tulsa's adjustment was a foot in the team's ass by the Head Coach.

[Skip Towne]

I wish Mecca was watching. He could tell us the birthday of every player. Seriously.

Damn, he is into scouting that much?

He seems to be pretty knowledgeable when it comes to measurables.

Adjustments are everything. During the Marty/Gun era you could see it on the opening drive. When the other team got the kickoff and started driving, by the time they got to the red zone, Gun had them neutralized. (I'm sure it was Marty's doings)

[Skip Towne]

TU again. 42-19

[notorious]

Did Gun coordinate from the sidelines or the box back then?

His adjustments consisted of:

a. send DT around the edge
b. send Neil Smith around the other edge
c. have Hasty and Carter physically beat the shit out of the WR's all the way down the field (pre-illegal contact)



Maybe personnel and Schot had a little to do with it.

[notorious]

Here is a little slightly off-topic FYI that very few people know:

Fort Hays State has a higher student enrollement than Tulsa.

That amazed me when Bill Self took them to the Great 8 in B-Ball (should have been Final 4)
and still amazes me to this day.

Tulsa is a private school and is damn expensive to attend. UCF is something like the 6th largest in the nation by enrollment. Poor lil ol' Tulsa.

Watch him on draft day. He must watch every televised football game. He knows about almost every player who is drafted.

[Ultra Peanut]

and still amazes me to this day.Tulsa's got a nice track record in basketball. Too bad their sucking ass has coincided with the rest of C-USA sucking ass, but the conference is slowly catching up to mediocrity.

[Al Bundy]

That was an awful loss, but one I expected.
