There's a good chance Tulsa's going to be ranked before the season's over. I'm not one to say Southern Miss isn't far behind them, either. Anyone who might have been interested missed out on a good ball game, even if it was on a Tuesday nite.

And yes, I like the University of Tulsa. My wife went to skool there, for one thing. Tulsa is widely known as a formidable sleeper team in the coaching business. They've beaten ranked teams including OU, and even scared the crap out of Jimmy Johnson's Miami team one year in Miami. The first thing Johnson said to his team in the locker room after the game was "maybe next time you guys will listen to me." He knew Tulsa as a real football team from his days at OSU. No disrespect, but TCU has nothing on TU, at least not this year.

BTW, Tulsa won the game last nite. I'm sorry if anyone missed out on it. As you've pointed out, though, there could be a rematch in the C-USA championship game.
