	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/21/2009 9:41:56 PM) Why did the chicken cross the road? Because Todd Graham's defense couldn't stop it.
	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/21/2009 9:44:37 PM) What do Todd Graham and the undertaker have in common? Both make a living running things into the ground.
	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/21/2009 9:53:11 PM) What is the difference between Todd Graham and Cinderella's ride to the ball? One is a coach.
	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/21/2009 10:00:24 PM) What's the difference between Todd Graham and a dead mackerel? One stinks and the other is a fish.
	Report Comment Hurricane4Lyfe, (11/21/2009 10:13:48 PM) Is someone trying to tell Todd Graham something by delaying the game? He better make the necessary changes if he wants to win this game.
	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/21/2009 10:15:38 PM) What does Todd Graham do during a rain delay? He prays for more rain.
	Report Comment r0rschach, (11/21/2009 10:29:42 PM) but let's remember, they are just trying to have fun.
	Report Comment FUTURE WORLD, Tulsa (11/21/2009 10:34:07 PM) Yea right! Time to call Coach Trimbil
	Report Comment Hurricane4Lyfe, (11/21/2009 10:43:08 PM) LOOK LIKE ITS OVER NOW.....Have A Safe Trip Home Boys...
	Report Comment Lance-a-lot, Tulsa (11/21/2009 11:11:04 PM) Odds on how many times TG uses the word "outcoached" in his press conference after the game? How about how many times he says "we had a chance to win the ballgame"?
	Report Comment Hurricane4Lyfe, (11/21/2009 11:17:04 PM) I have 4 words to say about Coach Graham and this season....'GOD DONT LIKE UGLY'
	Report Comment Lance-a-lot, Tulsa (11/21/2009 11:31:59 PM) Right future world...cause we already know Trimble can recruit!
	Report Comment TulsaFan33, (11/21/2009 11:35:21 PM) Personally, I have seen about enough of GJ Kinne as I can stand. Clearly he is not the answer at the quarterback position. He gets happy feet and refuses to stay in the pocket, and seems to think Damaris Johnson is the only receiver out running any sort of route on passing plays. TU needs to find a QB who can progress through his reads and look to get other receivers the ball. Trae Johnson had 70 catches and over 1,000 yards as a Freshman. Now a Junior, he has less than 20 catches this year. Obviously this year, TU was going to take a step back, but I did not think the step was going to be this dramatic.
	Report Comment Hurricane4Lyfe, (11/22/2009 12:04:26 AM) TulsaFan33 - You Hit The Nail Right On The Head....That's Exactly What I Was Talking About. You Have All This Talent And Try To Make One Person A SUPERSTAR....It Is Impossible And You Will Never Win Games That Way.
	Report Comment GCaneFan, (11/22/2009 12:41:12 AM) Todd Graham playing Jeopardy... Answer: Blitz Todd Graham: What is a Jewish pastry?
	Report Comment Golden Sluricane, (11/22/2009 1:15:23 AM) We'll get them next year
	Report Comment locooito, (11/22/2009 1:31:19 AM) How is Kinne still the quarterback??? Something is up. Does he have compromising pictures of Graham?? There are truly no answers. I am speechless.
	Report Comment View from the Balcony, (11/22/2009 3:53:33 AM) TU will never have the money or the ability to recruit top shelf talent at coach or athlete, which is why we always get lucky sometimes and catch a young coach on his way up and that brings respectability to our program... This time we may have missed...
	Report Comment Popeye, T-Town (11/22/2009 6:40:41 AM) An outstanding university like TU doesn't have to have a winning football team in my humble opinion. I like the kids on this team and think they tried their best this season. Having said that, I think I've seen enough of Todd Graham waving his arms and yelling at these kids like an idiot. Instead of waiting for someone to come haul Graham away, let's call Gus Malzahn FIRST and be pro-active for once.
	Report Comment T!ger,, Tulsa (11/22/2009 7:07:05 AM) OU and Tulsa are both just having a bad year. Every team has a bad year every few years bc of new rookies and NFL drafts. This just isn't the year for Tulsa or OU but you still gotta love 'em! Thats whats so great about Football in Oklahoma. Even win they lose it was still a fun game.
	Report Comment zephyr, Tulsa (11/22/2009 7:14:49 AM) Thank God basketball season is here.
	Report Comment TheFoundOgle, Mid-town (11/22/2009 9:22:22 AM) the 95 yd TD pass was pathetic... hard to believe TU was still in the game until that point. what a train wreck TU football has become this season.
	Report Comment out of tulsa, (11/22/2009 10:45:12 AM) Didn't Todd Graham sign a new 10 year contract - and, after that signing, was the start of the 6 game losing streak?
	Report Comment GoldenDriller1, Out of Town (11/22/2009 11:17:27 AM) While the TU faithful must accept the disapointment of this football season. We must never lose infinite hope for better results next season and the action necessary by the those in charge to affect that change.
	Report Comment canesablowin', (11/22/2009 11:43:59 AM) Yes I agree with the comment that Kinne does not regularly progress through his reads and, as a result, that talents like Trae Johnson and Slick Shelley were not used to their maximum potential. But the problem is not that Kinne does not progress through his reads, the problem is that Kinne does not have time to progress through his reads. I have all the respect for the spirit and combativeness of TU's offensive line, but their are simply too many positions across the line where talent is lacking to play D-1 ball. Improve line play and Kinne becomes a top tier qb, the running game returns and the passing game excels. Get some major JUCO linemen in here ASAP or next season may not be much improved.
