This will be brief because I need to go work out this Saturday morning and then get to work on my College Game Day as there’s three Power 4 games I want to focus on this glorious college football week-end.
These games would be: Texas Tech vs. Utah, Auburn vs. Oklahoma, and Miami vs. Florida. You’ll notice the two Power 4 teams with the two toughest schedules in the country, those being OU and Florida…both have tough assignments today as they pretty much will for the rest of the season.
As far as last night in Stillwater….what can you say of which I didn’t already write on this blog around twelve days ago.
Congrats to the young men from Tulsa. They completely dominated O State in the first half and in all reality should have been leading something like 24-3 at the half instead of 16-3. Tulsa obliterated O-State on both lines of scrimmage with O State coming off of an off week after the 69-3 disaster at Oregon.
For you business and math majors at O State…that’s means when your competing neighbor has 88 cows and pigs the last two games…and you have 15 cows and pigs the last two games—some serious work needs to be done.*
The kid playing QB for Tulsa, Taylor Hayes a sophmore, had one previous college football start before last night. And he played for East Tennessee State last season. So it’s not like in any way Tulsa had some high priced NIL transfer leading this road upset win last night in Stillwater.
Tulsa obliterated O State on both lines of scrimmage iin the first half. That’s football went the other guys obviously care more and have the ‘The Want To’ advantage.
That’s all that was, plus, O State tackles like a bunch of grandmothers. But give Tulsa credit. This was the first time since 1951 in which a Tulsa team won in Stillwater.
Kudos also should go out to former O State running back Dominic Richardson who was clearly the No. 1 star of the game. I’m sure this was special for him in that Mike Gundy told him he wasn’t good enough to be the feature back at O State.
Jim Traber on Monday can handle the Mike Gundy situation. I have better things to cover on my blog than this nonsense. Hope Tulsa can build on this and get themselves bowl eligible and build off this win.
Eternal love, Mike J.
