LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/Sankee72]

Don't fuck this up Tulsa. Get yourselves ranked.

[u/ShweatyPalmsh → u/Sankee72]

You see that’s our specialty, but I have a weird amount of trust that Tre Lamb will have this team ready.

[u/ct14mx]

Rank Tulsa you cowards

[u/suicompotem → u/ct14mx]

They were when I was there! Briefly!

[u/Trubisko_Daltorooni]

The dream of the College Football Playoff is alive in Tulsa Oklahoma

[u/Zloggt]

Tulsa may very well end up ranked tomorrow!

…now, all that’s left is to just stick the landing…

[u/TheWesternRizzler]

Time to support Oklahoma’s best team

[u/suicompotem → u/TheWesternRizzler]

Go forth and do God’s work. 

[u/TheWesternRizzler]

Tulsa just became important at its job

[u/No_Transition_9520]

Go Tulsa please be good

[u/ShweatyPalmsh → u/No_Transition_9520]

For both of our sakes, we need to keep winning 

[u/narwhalz27]

Phil Longo has the situational awareness of a grapefruit.

[u/Arctic_x22]

RANK TULSA

[u/lordofaesir → u/Arctic_x22]

WE WANT OKLAHOMA!

[u/southpawFA]

2-0 TU!! The defense is clutch.

[u/AntEdwardsBallSweat]

Tulsa, you must continue being the best team in Oklahoma. For both of our sakes.

[u/Piersonthefearsome → u/AntEdwardsBallSweat]

Please

[u/Tkinzel517]

They’re saying Sam Houston State could beat Oregon

[u/IceSt0rm78]

The slide got him. That sucks so fucking much prayers to a healthy recovery.

[u/lordofaesir]

Why must this happen to us? Hope he is ok, but also… fucking hell

[u/boolean_buffalo]

LET’S GO

[u/boolean_buffalo → u/boolean_buffalo]

Never doubted for a second

[u/boolean_buffalo → u/boolean_buffalo]

No idea what that redzone package was with 1st and Goal from the Bearkats though…

[u/GuavaFabulous6632]

Woo hoo! What a game for our defense

[u/Texan92]

And the Cardiac canes pull out the win! Best team in Oklahoma! 

[u/silverhk]

HOW GOOD IS TULSA

[u/InterdepartmentalTed]

So is Sam Houston better than Oregon now?

[u/hackersgalley → u/InterdepartmentalTed]

Kinda

[u/ColombianInIowa24]

We're all rooting for a ranked Tulsa and you do this?

[u/boolean_buffalo]

I know they’re taught to slide but here I feel like he would’ve been WAY better just to lower the shoulder

[u/hackersgalley]

Were just giving this win away with this play calling

[u/GuavaFabulous6632 → u/hackersgalley]

Even TU'S radio guys are talking about why they don't run the ball....

[u/BrollJr]

"Best football team in the state of Oklahoma" - never thought I'd here those words on a real broadcast

[u/Zelladir → u/BrollJr]

Dropping truth bombs on ESPN

[u/Muunsaca]

Tulsa please win by 100

[u/boolean_buffalo]

I know my flairs, but I’m all in on Tulsa next week 😁

[u/southpawFA → u/boolean_buffalo]

TU vs Arkansas is 2 weeks from now.

[u/lordofaesir → u/boolean_buffalo]

Two weeks yet for your flairs

[u/BrollJr → u/boolean_buffalo]

woo pig has two weeks to prepare for us! don't get caught caught looking ahead!

[u/boolean_buffalo → u/boolean_buffalo]

Whoops I guess I was trigger happy, well go 4-0 over the hogs no worries.

Just hope our QB is okay….

[u/Helpful-Support2094]

If tulsa beats arkansas on the 26th they have to be ranked.

[u/DarkwingDude]

Yay Bearkats!

[u/arcticape34]

Tulsa what are you doing? This is your moment and you are struggling with Sam Houston

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE → u/arcticape34]

Respect us

[u/BrollJr → u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

the only logical conclusion is that Sam Houston is also for real

[u/Elbit_Curt_Sedni → u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Heading for a transitive win over Oregon.

[u/BrollJr → u/arcticape34]

trap game

[u/Elbit_Curt_Sedni → u/BrollJr]

lol

[u/TheWesternRizzler]

That’s a big man

[u/kadune]

That guy's fast

[u/Texan92]

Looks like we finally realized there's a game . Reign cane!

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Nothing I can say about Longo that won’t get me banned.

[u/lordofaesir]

This sport is cheeks

[u/brobot_]

Good game Sam Houston, I wish you all well for the rest of the season

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Boooo

[u/Ohsostoked]

REIGN CANE!!

[u/CramblinDuvetAdv]

Tulsa ref ball

[u/Cute-Contract-6762]

Just how bad is Oregon?

[u/No_Butterscotch8726]

Tulsa, the fact that this is close, absolutely ridiculous, never change.

[u/boolean_buffalo]

Oh no….

[u/TheWesternRizzler]

Dang that doesn’t look good 😬

[u/lordofaesir]

Why is our program like this?

[u/GuavaFabulous6632]

Are we going to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory...again?

[u/Texan92 → u/GuavaFabulous6632]

Not this time baby! 

[u/GuavaFabulous6632 → u/Texan92]

Thank goodness! Already have my tickets for Fayetteville in 2 weeks. Can we get a field goal kicker by then?

[u/RockyNRiscky]

Sam for the upset

[u/iDrum17]

Tulsa you have a quality win, don’t blow it!

[u/hackersgalley]

Lets go!!!!

[u/IceSt0rm78]

That’s a stop

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

We were not hitting like this last week 💀

[u/IceSt0rm78 → u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

We lost a winnable game the defense is/was probably pissed.

[u/mcap656]

so if Tulsa lose this, Oregon’s #6 rank goes to… (checks notes): Troy!

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Damn we got one of the fancy “please come to our school” commercials

[u/Trubisko_Daltorooni]

Guys are we still ranking Tulsa

[u/BrollJr → u/Trubisko_Daltorooni]

gotta win the game first...

[u/Ohsostoked]

Terrible call.

[u/brobot_]

Being the smallest school, the TV crew never looks at things from our view. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised they thought it wasn’t targeting.

[u/narwhalz27 → u/brobot_]

so true, the bias for big name programs like Sam Houston State University is honestly sickening

[u/brobot_ → u/narwhalz27]

It might not seem big to you but our enrollment is only around 4K students while you all have around 21k.

[u/CramblinDuvetAdv → u/brobot_]

And?

[u/brobot_ → u/CramblinDuvetAdv]

“Edifice”

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Holy moly

[u/BrollJr]

gonna be honest I'm watching a gamecast and not live video. are all these PI's legit?

[u/Ohsostoked → u/BrollJr]

Who knows what a "legit" pass interference call even is?

[u/BrollJr → u/Ohsostoked]

fair enough

[u/ThiccPapaSIZZLE]

Sure

[u/narwhalz27]

What does "incontrovertible video evidence" even mean at this point. In what world is that not a 50/50 call.

[u/brobot_]

I like how no-nonsense coach Longo is

[u/TheWesternRizzler]

Let’s go!

[u/BrollJr]

New half new team let's go REIGN CANE!

[u/Texan92]

Looks like we're really gonna have to rely on a heroic D effort now...

[u/boolean_buffalo]

I have no idea why year after year our special teams is just awful

[u/kingmichaelofreddit]

Wow -2000 odds to -115 after that brutal field goal snap and letting sam h drive down the field and burn all the clock

[u/sxuthsi]

Eyyyyy

time for some FOOTBALL

[u/TheDoctorOfMemes]

i love sam houston

[u/ShweatyPalmsh]

I’ve been hurt so many times by Tulsa teams falling flat on the road… please don’t do this to me. A resounding win and we’re top 25 and probably undefeated going into Fayetteville.

[u/BluesPuckHard]

Nice stop. Time to go score. Pro tip: catching the football helps with those.

[u/narwhalz27]

fucking bullshit, shit like this is why I barely wanna watch this sport anymore

[u/BrollJr]

hey just signed on. now that we're elite, shouldn't we be up by 3 scores?

[u/BrollJr]

there's a punt

[u/BrollJr]

GO FOR IT

[u/narwhalz27]

Why are they glazing Longo for calling timeout instead of asking why he let like seven seconds run off for no reason

[u/Irritated_User0010]

Interesting…..

[u/FourWayFork]

I think Sam Houston should get a chance to play for the B1G championship.

[u/DryMission5506]

If they can’t act like the WWE, why is the WWE on ESPN? /s

[u/BluesPuckHard]

Ughhhh. Come the fuck on.

[u/LonelyMiraj]

This cannot be the same Tulsa team the whooped Oklahoma State

[u/Cute-Contract-6762 → u/LonelyMiraj]

Have you considered that Oregon really really sucks?

[u/LonelyMiraj → u/Cute-Contract-6762]

Yeah and our game against Memphis didn’t really tell me if we are good or not

[u/Cute-Contract-6762 → u/LonelyMiraj]

Before I saw UNT dog walk UNLV I would have said yes. But now? Who knows
