on Bowl Mania tonight, they all took Tulsa as a virtual "lock" to beat us. I don't know much about Tulsa, but I would think we have a pretty darn good shot at winning this game!

Maybe now that we're the underdog in ESPN's eyes, we can get a Lou Holtz pep talk out of it.

Should we all pitch in and buy him a Falcons jacket and hat and send it to Bristol?

Let 'em pick Tulsa, they couldn't stop anyone all year besides Houston, and gave up 40+ points to teams like Rice, BYU and UTEP, and allowed Army 39. Our defense improved greatly as the season went along, if we can defend the pass, we'll be alright.

There offense is great and our defense blows. i would pick tulsa too.

The Tulsa and BG defenses both suck ass. I did like the bit of improvement I saw in BG's defense over the last couple of weeks. Hopefully that carries over to Mobile. I really think this is going to be a very entertaining game.

Who gives a sh#t what Jesse Palmer thinks! Didn't he want to choose a wife in a 12 week process on a lame ass "reality" show?
Let the whole world pick Tulsa. BG's gonna be ready!
BTW, Has anyone played over on Tulsa's message board? In a nutshell...they are the most boring MF'ers I've encountered. Arrogant as well.

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor!?! Forget it, I'm rollin'. Anyway, this whole "Bowl Mania" show sucked. I don't like how they just did an "aside" type prediction for a few bowl games. I really think they should have done an in-depth analysis of each game. Not just an.."oh, by the way, I think Tulsa's gonna beat BG, or Purdue's gonna beat CMU." I tuned into the show thinking there would be some good stuff on each game. Not the case.

Tulsa will be a challenge. The Falcons can win, but this won't be easy at all.

I'm not surprised that many media will be picking Tulsa.

To pick who would win in this game they probably looked at the statistics, records and then compared the two. We can absolutely win, but gun to my head I would pick Tulsa. This has the makings of one of those 6 OT games that people talk about for months where neither team can stop eachother. Should be very exciting.

I understand why Tulsa is favored, I'm just saying I hope our team was watching the broadcast because they weren't giving us much of a prayer at winning this game. As an athlete myself I know that I can strike a cord and give a ton of new found energy and motivation to whomever the statement was made against. LETS GO FALCONS!

Of course, Tulsa is favored. I don't see why they wouldn't be.

At worst, it serves as motivation.
