You meant Civil conflict?

I would say the Basketball rivalry with UConn is far more intriguing than Football, even though the rivalry weren't there yet.

UCF had a great Rivalry with ECU back in CUSA days

So is the case for UCF vs Tulsa.

But after all 3 schools became AAC members. The rivalry actually took a step back

UCF needs heated Rivalry, even considering how young the Knights are

How do you folks think about Southern Miss?

I wouldn't say the UCF/ECU rivalry has taken a step back. We skipped each other in 2013 since ECU didn't join the AAC until 2013. Then in 2014 UCF's share of the conference title was nearly destroyed by ECU had it not been for the Breshad Perriman Hail Mary. 2015 was 0-12 for UCF then 2016 was a down year for ECU. The rivalry will return soon.

Oral Roberts is a better school than Tulsa.

Bringing the JUCO smack. Nice.

The ORU stinger must have hit a soft spot.

If life were fair they would be in the AAC, but it's not so they won't.

LoL.

You simply can't fk with those hands.



It had been so long since I'd visited Oral Bob U. I'd forgotten how ornate/ostentatious/cheesy the entire campus was. It looks Islam now. Maybe an idea for a sale.





You can just smell televangelist all over that mofo.

Definitely better than Tulsa U.

The babes dig the glitter. Makes me wanna go to a strip club.

The three buildings in the background of the last picture are now a cancer center. I see their ads on TV and they list NY, Chicago, Phoenix, LA, and Tulsa...that last one seems out of place.

This trolling is still definitely Misery Valley level. Maybe with some practice it will get up to par for the AAC.

Irony?

I was certainly a tiny tot when this happened; refresh my memory if you will... Wasn't Oral Bob going to jump off the roof of the tallest tower if a certain amount of money wasn't delivered to him by midnight on Christmas Eve? Jesus had threatened to punish the world by snatching ol' Bob off this earth if somebody didn't step up and make it rain. You cannot make this **** up.

Oral Robert's has to have some money issues at this point now that televangilism is at a low point from a money raising standpoint.

That did happen. Oral Bob was going to be taken by Jesus unless people sent him (Oral Bob - not Jesus) $100.

I attended an event in Tulsa at the time that was happening. Someone was selling t'shirts that said "Lord, please take him now. I don't have $100." they sold out - FAST!

But, back to the topic. Tulsa will be a natural, but with the level of Tulsa's program, their attendance, and the way WSU fans travel, that's going to be another home game for the Shox. WSU fans may outnumber Tulsa fans in Tulsa.

SMU is not likely to be a WSU rival. Something about that illinois State connection and the KU connection. Jankovich is a KU guy, Brown was a KU guy. Jankovich scheduled crap for OOC games when he was at Illinois State. That got him gaudy W/L numbers, but hurt the conference. When he changed schools he took a player (Nic Moore) with him. WSU fans are likely to dislike SMU, but not in a way that develops a rivalry. Nothing against the school, just the coaching.

Cincy seems to be a potential rival for WSU. The distance makes it hard to develop a rivalry, but I think both schools have the potential to be top-20 or better teams every year. That makes for rivalries. UConn should be able to get back into that area as well, but distance is too great for that to be a rivalry game.

There are a lot of WSU fans in my age range and we remember when Cincy was in the MVC and played in Wichita. That gives starting a rivalry a jump start. Throw in that WSU and Cincy are likely to split the h/h series this year in some hotly contested games and the young guns will be able to find the bandwagon. This series could develop into something.

"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

It's great to share a conference again with Tulsa, but for it to become a rivalry again either Tulsa is going to need to step their game up, or WSU is going to have to take a nosedive. Let's all hope it is the former, but Haith doesn't give one a ton of confidence.

Since the once-a-season series started back up between the two schools a few years ago, there's been nothing terrifically exciting about the game atmosphere on either end, especially in Tulsa where the atmosphere/attendance could give Friends University a run for it's money. The exception would have been in 2015 at Tulsa when TU beat (top 10/15?) WSU in a game that was the start of a Shocker injury bug that really neutered the season.
