Saturday’s victory over Tulsa at Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium, however, was more like what you’d expect in a blowout. The Tigers (6-0, 2-0 American Conference) were in a 5-point game early in the final quarter at Florida Atlantic before pushing the lead to a 29-point win last Saturday. The score was well out of reach by the fourth quarter this week and the announced crowd of 27,303 could appreciate another win at home.
