4 point favorite as of the early line today. I must say I will expect this to increase in Tulsa's favor, only based on their offensive stats. Our defense will have their hands full.

I wouldn't touch this game though in Vegas...it's gonna be high scoring and unpredictable.

I would expect Tulsa to be favorted, too. And when faced with a shootout as we're likely to see, just about anything can happen.

Our D isn't the greatest...but Tulsa has NO D. This will be an exciting game and the last team with the ball could be the winner.

Our D played very well the last two weeks of the season so they matured are the best time.

They have a WR that averages something like 35 yards a catch. :shock: For that reason alone they should be favored!

Tulsa is 108th in the country in pass defense. They had 2 1,000 yard receivers and another with 900+. That is some impressive offensive numbers. Whoever said in a previous post that the over/under could be around 100 could be right.

Their place kicker made only seven FG, but that could be because they scored so many TD's.

BG- 55
Gus Frerotte U. 49

Either that or they gave Sean Ellis a go after he left BG...sorry, it was just too easy.

Our place kicker is pretty average and that's being nice. He's missed some extra points and the game winning field goal against UTEP. We'll go for it on fourth down instead. If we had a decent kicker, the UCF game may have been a little closer; as things stood, we just kept throwing it.
