Tulsa Golden Hurricane:  N/A

Wyoming Cowboys:  lost their last game on the road against the Illinois Fighting Illini 38-6.

 

Tulsa is playing their season opener here on Saturday and this will also be their first road game of the college football season. They finished last season with a 7-6 record overall and were 3-3 in their road games. They were also 5-3 in their conference games and finished 5th place in the AAC. They ended their season with a 30-17 win against the Old Dominion Monarchs in the Myrtle Beach Bowl. Their offense was averaging 443.5 YPG and 26.4 PPG while their defense was allowing 370.2 YPG and 26.6 PPG against them. Davis Brin led the team in passing with 3,269 passing yards, Shamari Brooks led the team in rushing with 1,029 rushing yards, and Josh Johnson led the team in receiving with 1,114 receiving yards. 

 

 

 

Wyoming is entering this game with a 0-1 record overall to start their college football season and they will be playing their 1st home game of the season here. They lost against the Illinois Fighting Illini in their last game on the road 38-6 in Week 0. Andrew Peasley started that game at QB and he completed 5/20 passes for 30 yards and 1 interception. Titus Swen led the team in rushing with 98 yards on 17 rushing attempts while Joshua Cobbs led the team in receiving with 14 yards on 2 receptions. Shae Suiaunoa led the defense in that game with 5 solo tackles and 1 assisted tackle while no one on the defense recorded an interception or a sack

The current betting odds have Tulsa listed as a 6.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Tulsa will be playing their first game of the season here while Wyoming has already been in a game this season in Week 0, and they looked awful in that game. They only scored 6 points on Illinois and allowed 38 but that is not even the concerning part. Their starting QB only threw for 30 yards passing and their leading rusher did not even have 100 rushing yards, leaving the team with less than 200 yards rushing for the game. Combine that with their 30 passing yards and they had a game where they produced just around 200 yards of total offense, and that is very bad. They stripped down their entire team for this season and have a bunch of new faces, it will take them a lot of time to get going again. Tulsa on the other hand, also has some new faces in this offense but their starting QB from last season is still here which should give them some stability with their offense. They have also had a great ATS record over the last 2 seasons and have been even better covering the spread on the road as they are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 road games. Tulsa also did not strip down their team completely and they are a lot more ready to play with each other despite not having played a game yet when Wyoming has. With the way Wyoming's offense was in the last game though, it is hard to see them scoring points on Tulsa here. The best way to place a bet here is on Tulsa to cover the spread in this game.

“There’s been lots of changes in the game. It’s amazing, in that span of time, the players that have come and gone, the coaches that have come and gone across the conference, how our conference has really grown, because when I first got here, it was still a really young conference and we were fighting for respectability, for the notoriety that we felt as though we needed to earn and I feel we have. I think top to bottom, we’re one of the strongest conferences in the country, because a lot of them have their top echelon of teams and then there’s another group of them. In our conference, there’s so much parity that it makes it very competitive.” - Philip Montgomery getting ready for their season opener against Wyoming here.

 

 

"Some of the things that we did well in the game, I thought that we rushed the ball well. I was deeply concerned about, you know, a lot of new faces on the offensive line and for us to be able to maintain that line of scrimmage and then get people moved back. I thought the offensive line did a good job with that. Our numbers bear that out." - Craig Bohl after his team’s loss against Illinois last week.
