SEC: 3

My top 5 games from list:

#1. Ole Miss at Tulane
#2. UCLA at San Diego State
#3. Oklahoma at Tulsa
#4. UCF at Boise State
#5. Duke at Uconn

I would guess there's a good chance about 5/6 of the G5 teams pull off win here.
 
Hawaii's always a good road game for P5 teams. The kids get to say they've been to Hawaii and take in a little tourist activity like a bowl game.

I don't know if it's still the same rule, but if you played OOC @ Hawaii back in the day it didn't count against the limits for regular season games. Instead of 12 game limits now, it would be a legit 13th regular season game.

Stanford is not counting it as a 13th game.

Yep, I remember that rule as well. Vandy played at Hawaii last year, but also only played 12 regular season games. It appears the last P5 team to play a 13th game was Colorado in 2015.

I'd forgotten Tulsa was one of Oklahoma's losses in their 1996 (3-8) season. Tulsa finished (4-7) that season.

They also lost to (4-7) TCU who was in the WAC.

They lost @ San Diego St as well, but SDSU was (8-3).

Y'all did beat tejas though. :dhd:

Yeah if I was in the spot to make those decisions and Hawaii wanted us to play there, I'm signing up for that.

Probably because OU loses the home game gate and associated concession stand income.

Tulsa's return trip to Oklahoma isn't scheduled until 2030.

Presumably it was a 2 for 1
