TU vs Cincinnati Predictions
A little early on this thread, but its a Friday night affair this week.
A word of warning is the schedule favors Cincinnati in this way. Their last game versus Memphis was on Friday, not Saturday like our trip to UCF. Thus Cincy has an extra day of prep for our game. Also our game was on the road and at night in a venue about as far as we can travel in this league. So IMO there will be a slight Cincy advantage in that dept.
But we are obviously the better team imo. Better record. Better offense. Better defense. Better coaches. A home game on our campus. So all the signs point to a win for us. However, that doesn't calculate the desperate nature of a team that many picked to win the eastern AAC and who have suffered through a humiliating season. This is their last game no matter what. If you think about it, they may look at this game as their "Alamo". So we need to be ready imo.
But everything taken into consideration, I think we will win:
TU - 48
Cincinnati - 21

Can't quite figure out what happened to Cincy......they should be capable but the desire just doesn't seem to be there......hopefully it doesn't come back to them this Friday.......if they play up to there capabilities....Tulsa 42-35..........if they play like they have most of the season Tulsa 42-14

I'd like to see a shutout but we'll probably give up a couple of scores.
Tulsa - 45
Cincy - 10

RE: TU vs Cincinnati Predictions
Another factor that could hurt us is the game falls on the Thanksgiving Holiday as well as a Friday night (when HS games are played) and a lot of folks could be absent and of course the students will be gone. So I think all the intangibles tend to work for Cincy. Again, it is imperative that we ignore the negatives and play hard. This is not a game we should take lightly.
It will be a little cold according to the weathermen, so bundle up as best you can.
See you at the game.
