	Report Comment GoldenDriller1, Out of State (9/14/2009 7:21:33 AM) I sincerly hope that if G.J. can not execute the most effective weapon in the TU Offensive play book (the downfield forward pass)then Todd inserts Jacob Bower early in the game to keep pace. In fact it may be a wise choice to platoon G.J. and Jacob in alturnating quarters to keep the Sooners off pace. Coach Patterson and his Defensive Staff need to earn their money this week and come up with something to defend the passes to the 'flats' and corner routes.
	Report Comment Rhymeister, Tokyo, JPN (9/14/2009 8:08:32 AM) GD, your idea stinks. Alternating QBs works when the starter sucks. Kinne is more than capable of leading Tulsa to a victory. It's upset time because TU's defense forces Landry Jones to three interceptions...
	Report Comment hornhater2, (9/14/2009 8:21:43 AM) Being in Tokyo it must be legal to smoke that stuff, because Rhymeister always sounds like he is smoking something.
	Report Comment Dethklok, Claremore (9/14/2009 8:58:46 AM) This is a great game for both universities and the state of Oklahoma. This is Tulsa's best year to pull off the upset. I look for a tough game just like the last time Tulsa went to Norman. I still think the Sooners have enough speed on defense to slow down Tulsa.
	Report Comment hawkdaddy, (9/14/2009 10:58:09 AM) Both offensive lines will have trouble protecting their QBs. OU's d-line is nasty and I believe Tu has 10 sacks in the first two games. The game will be decided up front because either QB is capable if they get protection.
	Report Comment OPEN YOUR EYES TULSA, Tulsa (9/14/2009 12:06:47 PM) This will be a great game and I love both teams. I hope TU can pull it off though.
	Report Comment bravo, (9/14/2009 1:32:11 PM) Nobody knows which OU team will show up. TU is more than capable of beating this team if OU plays like it did against BYU. Looking forward to a great game.
	Report Comment Tulsan in Exile, (9/14/2009 3:03:29 PM) I'm a die-hard Tulsa fan, but we need to get real here. Yes, Tulsa COULD pull off the upset, because anybody can beat anybody. But it isn't likely. OU lost to a VERY good BYU team. Tulsa and BYU have a common opponent: Tulane. Just take a look at the box scores from those two games. Tulsa had trouble stopping Tulane, and gave up a ton of yards. BYU had no such difficulty. They destroyed Tulane, and could have scored 75 on them had they wanted. I hope we catch OU on a bad day, but that's what it would take to beat them: our best, and their worst.
	Report Comment GoldenDriller1, Out of State (9/14/2009 5:47:34 PM) Rhymeister- Given I have seen the team upclose at practice and in both of the games whereby I believe by your location has you at a disadvantage not to have seen anything post internet, blogs and clip video you may want to consider my observations that G.J. and Jacob have different skill sets and that for OUR TEAM to be successfull, Todd needs to employ both QB's talents.
	Report Comment #1kinnefan, Owasso (9/14/2009 6:45:56 PM) you are an idiot golden driller1 you dont alternate qb's when you the best qb in the nation in kinne, hes been doing this for years. so what bower can run better i bet he can throw int's better as well. IF IT AINT BRKE DONT FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
	Report Comment dho, (9/14/2009 10:12:21 PM) GoldenDriller1 must think GJ does not have the ability to throw it deep. I have watched him play for years and believe me he has a cannon for an arm. He has been sacked 7 times in the first two games. Given more time, you would see that power. What GJ has done so far is show his amazing athletic ability to avoid more sacks. He does something few QBs can and that is throw back accross the field while on the run in the opposite direction. That takes real talent. I have seen both games this year and GJ'S performance has been remarkable. No one and I mean no could have done better.
	Report Comment dho, (9/14/2009 10:18:31 PM) My comments were not meant to take anything a way from Jacob Bower. He threw a perfect strike to Slick in the end zone against New Mexico. It was beautiful.
	Report Comment dho, (9/14/2009 10:27:14 PM) Oops! I meant a pass to Trae Johnson not Slick. Sorry Trae
	Report Comment Hurricane Mimi, Fort Worth (9/15/2009 12:19:42 AM) I, too, have seen Kinne play in dozens of games, and he definitely has what it takes - give him protection and watch what he can do -fast feet and quick thinking along with incredible passing skills - he has the ability to throw it deep or run it - Go, Tulsa - God bless you with a safe game
	Report Comment Rhymeister, Tokyo, JPN (9/15/2009 5:45:22 PM) hornhater2, yes, i have all of my teeth and nope, have never smoked anything illegal. You just don't like it when someone disses your Land Grabbers team. You'll see at the end of the season when you end up 9-3 or 8-4, they're not that good this season.
