    Rooting for Tulsa

    Is anybody else rooting for Tulsa tonight? I know I am. I think Boise St. is overrated and I would love to see Tulsa pull this one out at home. I haven't seen much of Tulsa yet this year, though, so I'm not sure if they have a chance or not.

    I'm pulling for Tulsa as well. If BSU loses that should give BYU a bcs bid this year if they can win out. I don't think Tulsa will pull it out though. I think BSU is a legit top 10-15, 5th might be a little high but who knows?

      Oh man, I hate BSU. I would pay some good money for BSU to lose tonight. One of my BILs is a BSU fan and the other is a Utah fan. If I had to hear from both of them that they had been to 2 BCS bowls and BYU hasn't even sniffed one yet....I might have to kill myself.

        The term "rooting" is off-putting to me.

          It would give any of the MWC teams a BCS bid if they win out.

          Every MWC fan should be cheering for Tulsa. A Boise loss opens the door wide for TCU, Utah or BYU.

            Boise losing is a big deal for us and the conference. If they lose, a one loss TCU would beat them for a BCS bid, and a one loss BYU might.

              My wife uses the term "voting" as in are you voting for them to win. Is that more appropriate?

              Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                If they lost and a one loss BYU didn't beat them out, I would be mighty upset, unless Oklahoma just blew the rest of their season and Oregon won the NC.

                  I say might because Boise's ranked so high right now, I don't know if they fall below BYU with a loss this week. I didn't include Utah, because I doubt they fall below Utah.

                    This game is working into a track meet.

                      Did Boise go for two after their first TD? or was it a botched snap on the kick that turned into two points?

                            if you are pulling for tulsa, this game is going to have you hoping. Right up to the bitter end, when BSU wins.

                            That is the feeling this game is giving me.
