I'm going to be real, this would normally be a game that I truly would not give a damn about.
A 3:30 p.m. game against a winless team from The American that lost its opener to an FCS program? In most scenarios, this is a snoozer of a game where the most intriguing part is which backup quarterback gets in the game first – a mentality that could always allow for Tulsa to surprise some folks and make things interesting, if the Buckeyes weren't careful.
But unfortunately for Tulsa, it drew the short straw of having to face Ohio State following Ryan Day's first regular-season loss after he made it extremely clear he was pissed as hell at the performance and is planning to roll some heads if things don't improve.
