I want to get payback for what Tulsa did to us in 1982!!

I have a very long memory, and I want to pay them back BIG TIME.
They beat BU in the conference tourney and caused BU to lose the automatic bid and get sent to the NIT.

Hey, if Tulsa wins, we would have played 2 FORMER Missouri Valley Conference members in the CBI by the time it's over - Cincinnati and Tulsa!

We match up better against Houston! Tulsa sure knows how to pound the glass not something we did a lot this year.

BTW...Where was RA?

Tight game continues as Tulsa leads 54-53 at the under 12 minute timeout. This game looks to be going down to the wire.

Tulsa gets a HUGE block with 11 seconds left up 3 ... Houston shoots for the tie ...

[BUBraves2006]

Houston gets a wide open look ... CLANK! Tulsa about to win and host the Braves Monday...

It looks like it will be a championship series with a current MVC team and a former MVC team!

How exciting to get to play Tulsa!!! One of my all-time favorite moments in sports was that game we played with them in 1996 when we were down like 47-30 at half and came back to blow them out in OT. That was one of the loudest crowds in Carver history. Seals vs Parker.

I'm excited that the CBI is allowing us to revive yet another classic rivalry. I was always disappointed that BU didn't try to schedule a series w/ Tulsa when they left for the Mountain West, but maybe this could be the catalyst. It'd be great to blow them out twice, but logically this should be 2-3 great showcases, hopefully with national attention.
