Hoping Tulsa will hold on to their lead. Peruna's head and tail show up pretty well at midfield!

Disappointing for Tulsa with 11 seconds.
It makes sense to me.

Baylor wins last night, BYU wins today. It's a good bowl season for cults.

I was surprised by all of the empty seats too.

Was at the game. Buddy offered me free tix at last sec.
Tulsa seemed to have more people there than BYU. Was kinda surprised by that since I keep reading about BYU's supposed national following.
The Tulsa sections were full on the east side, but BYU's were 1/4 empty.
Home side was full.
Endzones were had some folks, but corners especially were empty.
I would guess around 28 or 29k.

I had a good time. Perfect weather. Great crowd.

The muffed punt (WHY IN THE F WOULD YOU CATCH AND RETURN A PUNT ON YOUR TEN!!!) with 40 seconds left in the half was what cost Tulsa the game.

Our offense was awful. No running game.

Fun time. Im bummed this bowl is moving back to Ft. Worth.
Trey was using the powers of Gamehendge to allow the show to continue, to give the band the strength it needed to help break through this barrier

Sat in my seats with a couple of friends. Just cheered for whoever was behind. Great game overall and a great atmosphere. Ford looks weird when fans are actually making noise. :D Loved the fake spike. Only downside, ofcourse I was wearing my SMU gear, a Tulsa fan extremely drunk yelling out that "SMU sucks and that we are holding June hostage. Even he doesn't want to be here." Other than that A+

If you had to live in Tulsa, you would be belligerent and drunk most of the time.

I was at the game; may be last chance in a while to see a Holiday week bowl game at Ford Stadium. Actually had a parachute drop today to begin the game. Great weather and great atmosphere. Spoke to some BYU fans who would have loved to have joined us in the Big East. I hope the South end-zones are not replaced with seats--seems like a great fan-friendly area, especially on a sunny day. Tulsa mascot all-time worst, part Blueman, part gay Uncle Sam--really creepy...

If you get drunk in OK, you've earned it. 3.2% brew is brutal.
