I'm so disappointed I can't even yell NEEERRRRDDS at you two.

What?! I have just had so many vampyr novels that Ive had to catch up on lately that I couldn't work them in. Sookie Stackhouse takes priority. lol.

Tulsa is a great city and the University of Tulsa is a pretty campus. The last time we went there, we met lots of really nice Tulsa fans. kSkelly Stadium will remind you of Fouts and make Apogee seem even nicer. I may go back, however, I am convinced that when I go on the road to watch NT, we lose. I may take one for the team and stay home. No decision yet.

For now,

Beat UTSA. Then, beat everybody else.

GO MEAN GREEN

Same goes for me. We had a good time two years ago in every aspect but the game result. I'm scheduled to be down in The Woodlands area for Thanksgiving, but would sure like to turn around and make the trip again. We shall see.

Saving up all my road trip kitchen pass good will for the bowl game (wives pregnant with twins can be so unreasonable).

If I go, it will probably be drive up and back like I did with La Tech. Tulsa is a great town, but I'm still pissed that them for getting out of the conference as quickly as they could so that they didn't have to associate with us cretins. You know, kind of like SMU, only with blue and gold unis. I hope we send them off with a nice ass whipping.....with lots of excessive scoring.

AstroMike · November 13, 2013

Hoping to be there.

UNT90 · November 13, 2013

Tulsa still has not announced a time for the game, which will directly affect my attendance/non-attendance.

Just looked at it and it doesn't apply to the right dates it appears.

I checked Southwest and if you're flying out of Love Field you can do a fly in one day and fly back out the next day and you'll play $69 or $79 each way. It's a little more expensive but not bad at all if you want to skip the drive time. And Southwest has really early morning flights as well.

John Williams · November 13, 2013

Im going and have about 5 people with.

Marty · November 14, 2013

Haven't been to an away game in several years but I'm thinking about going to this one. There will be 3 of us if we go.

Downside: 3.2 beer

Upside: 3.2 beer in OK is considerably cheaper than its TX counterpart

Reality: 3.2 is Alcohol by Weight, which translates to 4.2% Alcohol by Volume. Milwaukee's Best Light in TX is 4.2% abv

Conclusion: Your 3.2 beer in OK will get you just as good to go on case day and will cost considerably less

But if you stay over: Tulsa bars have a wide selection of local micros and IPAs along with your standard California/Colorado/Kansas City flavors that are fully leaded.

Little known trick for cheap beer in a bar in OK: PBR in a can is, for some reason, considerably higher in alcohol than its bud/miller/coors peers. Yet it is often quite a bit cheaper.

Unlike Utah, where all draft beer must, by law, be 3.2, anything on tap in OK that isn't bud/miller/coors will be fully leaded.
