TU tries to regroup vs. UM

Tulsa Beacon

Houston returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown, and many in the H.A. Chapman Stadium press box Friday night felt this would be indicative of the way the game was going to go.

‘Underacheiving,’ undefeated OU battles past Nebraska

Tulsa Beacon

It’s strange that a team that is ranked No. 4 in the nation and is undefeated is being labeled as an underachiever but that is the case for Oklahoma following a hard-fought 23-16 over unranked Nebraska Saturday in Norman. It was the lowest point total in the Coach Lincoln Riley era but it was also…

TU/Ohio State game is close

Tulsa Beacon

Going into the game, Ohio State was a 25.5-point favorite over the University of Tulsa, however, the No. 9 Buckeyes certainly didn’t look like a Top-10 team early on, as OSU beat Tulsa, 41-20, Saturday in Columbus, Ohio. Tulsa (0-3) kept the game close for the first three quarters, and looked like a much-improved team…
