Stat(s) of the Game:
- Tulsa Offense – A horrible day for Stephens. At one point he was 5-20 for a whopping 55 yards. He at least semi-redeemed himself, ending the day 12-29 for 192 yards and two touchdowns, but also threw two interceptions and was sacked seven times. He keeps chucking up interceptions or has another piss-poor day passing like that, and he may just end up getting benched and hand the reigns over to backup Erik Wallace. Rushing was the bright spot of the day, as Oliver ended with 137 yards rushing and one touchdown on 24 carries, to go along with seven yards receiving on one reception. Receiving, only five players caught a pass today, Hayden leading the way with 101 yards and two touchdowns on six receptions. Only three players had double digit receiving yards.
- Tulsa Defense – A tale of two halves. Fantastic in the first half, utterly atrocious in the second half. They can bend and either give very little or give nothing at all. But when they break, they BREAK and the floodgate open (See: Oklahoma State, Rice). They did manage to recover a fumble and intercept a pass, but it didn't help too much in the end.
- Tulsa Kicking – Glover potentially cost us the game. He went 1-2 in field goal, connecting from 52 yards out, but missing from 36 yards. That 36 yard field goal very well may have meant our two-point conversion would have been for the tie rather than to get within three. The one area he was perfect was PATs, ending 2-2.
