Tulsa looks to bounce back from a 2-10 campaign in 2017, as the Golden Hurricane saw five losses come in the final minute of the game, including two setbacks on field goals as time expired. Tulsa has reached double digits in wins five times in the last 11 years.
After entering last season without a quarterback who had started a collegiate game, Tulsa comes into 2018 with quarterbacks Chad President and Luke Skipper, who started six games each in 2017. Running back Shamari Brooks rushed for a team-high 10 touchdowns with 687 yards despite missing three games due to injury, while wide receiver Justin Hobbs earned second team all-conference honors last season after he had 55 receptions for 830 yards and three touchdowns.
