Tulsa fans are delusional

44 for Tulsa was trash

Tulsa is a good school. They are actually a better school than TCU. That said, they are not in our class as an institution. Plus, its in freaking Oklahoma. Please.

not according to usnwr:
smu-58
tcu-76
tulsa-88

Yeah I know TCU is ranked slightly higher than Tulsa in USNWR. I guess I still consider Tulsa to be a better school. TCU has made some great strides here in the last decade but I'd venture to guess the average SAT/ACT of Tulsa is higher than TCU. I could be wrong though. Both are good schools but neither are the quality of SMU.

I din't find their comments to be that out of line. I know they have their perceptions and bias so with that, it will favor TU and not SMU. I get that. Allowing for that, it seemed pretty mild. I think they have a good team, better than your collective bias gives credit (including me). And they play probably their best game of the season against us and did force us to play a less than spectacular game.

Its now on to the Tourney, learn form this game, enjoy the fruits of a great season and prepare to improve our chances later this month.

if #10 hadn't had the game of his life we would have won pretty easily.

Half their posters think that they are better than us (even though we've beaten them twice) and the refs somehow favored us. Go read Uconn's or Cincy's fans boards. Those guys actually know what they are talking about and are pretty reasonable. Or even Tulanes. The Tulsa fans are nuts. Some thought they would roll us by 20 IN MOODY.

it is pretty close to arkansas.

UConn fans are just as delusional as Tulsa's....

There's always a few crazies on every board, but after we kicked their butt's in Moody, most of them said that we were clearly the better team. They also have enormous respect for LB.

Now if you're referring to them still whining about the conference, and such, then yeah, they think they're screwed forever because they're not in the Old BE and it'll be impossible to ever win again.

I think in a couple of years they will be much happier where they are. Old Big East will get starved to death - their tv renegotiation will be rough. Actually all of us will be starved to death, but they will be among the first.

What is left of the big east will fall to mid major in the next 10 years because they have a regional footprint and they are on a terrible platform to generate ratings. Being on the ESPN platform is huge for TV ratings, no regular old big east teams ever got more than a .5 because they play on fox. You are pretty much guaranteed at least a .5 if you are prime time on espn 2.

Cincy has beaten US twice. Do you think we are better? I do.

His season average for 3 pointers is 39%. Against us he hits 63%. If he played up to his average we would have won by almost 20. Nevertheless, kudos to him for a great performance. Points out our need for a great 3 point threat.

I seem to recall that some of us thought we would clobber UConn up at Storrs a couple of Sundays back.

Indeed, I was pretty sure that was going to happen.
