Dear Tulsa

[stormspencer]

Good luck in the NIT. Since you can't beat a team with a pulse, you won't be winning at SMU in the season finale nor winning the American Conference Tournament. Just try and keep you're RPI in the top 50.

Best Wishes, OU

They barely shot over 30% from the field but it was better than their free throw percentage.

Is this really needed?

 

[sperry]

Yeah, hating Tulsa of all schools is pretty bizarre.

Don't be hating on Tulsa.

They provided me two of my greatest NCAA tournament memories. The 1994 UCLA game and two days later the win over OSU. All the OSU fans were going crazy as Tulsa throttled UCLA thinking they would have a cake walk to the Sweet 16. Two days later my best friend, a couple of hundred Tulsa fans, the Arkansas mob and myself were all cheering on Tulsa as they sent a majority of the Myriad home sad. :eddie187_jpg_xs:

Yes, great memory. I was there also and had this OSU fan sitting behind me. Every time Tulsa made a good play, this OSU fan would loudly yell "don't let them do that," as if the only way the opponent could make a good play was when OSU "let them" do it. Well, Tulsa did it often that day!

Tulsa is mentioned in the bubble article linked below:

Tulsa (21-8, 14-3 AAC): Even though Tulsa entered Wednesday in sole possession of first place in the American Athletic Conference, its profile doesn't exactly scream NCAA tournament team. Of its five RPI top 100 wins, two are against fellow bubble team Temple, two are against mediocre Memphis and one came at home against underachieving UConn. The Golden Hurricane also have a horrendous loss to Oral Roberts and an even worse one against a Division II opponent. Tulsa blew a chance to help itself at home on Wednesday when it lost to Cincinnati 56-47. That might have quashed the Golden Hurricane's at-large hopes, though they can make things interesting by winning at SMU on Sunday, claiming the outright league title and doing some damage in the conference tournament.

Lighten up Francis' (plural)

Not hating...I do hope they somehow make the tournament, but I don't see it happening. It's a harmless jab....relax.

Oh that was an awesome day when the Hurricane beat the Ags. Tickets were scarce so we had to settle for watching at Bricktown Brewery. There are probably still some Ags out there that hate us for that day. :ez-laugh:

Plural of Francis would be Francises. You attempted to make Francis possessive, as in Francis' complaints about your backhanded jab at Tulsa. You don't use an apostrophe when you're making something plural.
