Title: Tulsa Sets Records!
Post by: cannon_fodder on January 07, 2008, 09:40:57 AM
Tulsa:  63
Bowling Green: 7

* The most lopsided victory in the history of Bowl games (and that's with slowing it down in the 4th QT, less than half our average offense).
* Tulsa QB Paul Smith joined the 5,000 club (7 members with over 5K yards on a season)
Smith holds the NCAA record for most consecutive * 300 yard games (previously Ty Detmer - 1990.  Now at 14 games - or every game this season)
* Only team in NCAA history to have a 5000 yard passer, 3 - 1,000 yard receivers, and a 1,000 yard rusher.
* 10 win season for Tulsa

Not bad for a first year coach.  Oh, and on ESPN's wrap-up we had what will probably be the best hit of the college football year:

Go Tulsa!  Golden...

What a game!

I said before the season started that Paul Smith was the best quarterback in the state.

Let's hope he gets a chance to show it on Sundays next fall.

this is great for the university of Tulsa.  National attention, this will definitely help recruiting.  Congrats TU.
