eibua12 81 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Ok sports fans I just realized Tulsa is on the cusp of breaking into the top 25 so I had to do some research (Yup about 10 seconds worth). Can we really say that Tulsa is better then any team in the lower echelon of a BCS conference and only 8 spots worse then Arkansas per Sagarin? Schedule Sagarin's computer poll: 10 Spots lower then ND. 29 Tulsa A = 79.89 6 1 65.43( 91) 0 0 | 0 1 | 80.28 26 | 78.45 31 BCS Ranks (BTW Their computer ranking is .080 and UGA is .000) 28 Tulsa Golden Hurricane 6-1 .021 .011 .080 .038 25 Yeah I trust the system I guess Tulsa would be considered the 7th best team in the SEC if you follow the BCS 5 Auburn 6 UF 11 UT 13 Arkansas 16 LSU 27 UGA 28 Tulsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Tulsa's long hard fought journey they plowed through the likes of: Stephen F. Austin (Isn't that a highschool??) North Texas Navy (AT Navy mind you) Southern Miss East Carolina Memphis And their only defeat coming at the hands of BYU... Also remembing that Tulsa beat East Carolina by 4 more points than West Virginia AND gave up the same amount of points as them as well, 10. So where should Tulsa be ranked??? Well I think it's obvious don't you? Being that Tulsa does have 1 loss it is clear that they should be ranked #5 in the nation right behind West Virginia because of their 1 loss but ahead of Auburn due to their strength of schedule to date... I mean after all it does pose a striking resemblance to that of West Virginia: Marshall Eastern Washington (Didn't know they had a team) Maryland East Carolina Mississippi State (We have to give them credit now I mean they did put a beating on an SEC team) Syracuse UConn Look out Ohio State, Michigan, USC and especially you WEST VIRGINIA.... Tulsa's on a tear! (Please notice the satire... We don't need a bunch of outraged WV fans in here they are in over their head enough as it is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eibua12 81 Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Ah now that would be Priceless Speaking of Priceless Watched the game last night Tulsa was down at halftime to UTEP 20-6 and eventually pulled out he win, makes you go HMMM SI Power Rankings has Tulsa ranked above WSU so I guess we should have played them this year instead to help our SOS.
