Tulsa Post-Game Notes vs. Houston
- Tulsa won the toss and elected to receive
- Tulsa scored on its first possession for the sixth time in the last seven games.
- Marco Nelson had two first quarter interceptions. It was the first time that a Tulsa player had at least two interceptions in one game since Sept. 20, 2008 when Charles Davis and Roy Roberts each had two interceptions against New Mexico.
- Nelson had his third interception of the game at the 5:39 mark of the fourth quarter. His three interceptions tie a school record which had been set by several Golden Hurricane players in the past. The latest was Michael LeDet's three interceptions against UTEP in 2004.
- Tulsa's defense has now forced multiple turnovers for the eighth time this season, and it marks the seventh straight game that the Hurricane forced two or more turnovers.
- G.J. Kinne's interception on his 11th passing attempt snapped his consecutive pass streak without an interception at 194 passes thrown. He had gone the previous five games without a pass interception.
- Curnelius Arnick had the third and fourth interceptions of the game for the Hurricane. It was Arnick's first career interceptions. It was the first time since Sept. 20, 2008 against New Mexico that Tulsa had two players with two interceptions in the same game.
- Tulsa intercepted five Houston passes. It was the third time this year that Tulsa had multiple interception games. Tulsa had three pick-offs against Bowling Green and Notre Dame.
- G.J. Kinne had 106 rushing yards in the first half. It marked the second time in his career that he has rushed for 100 yards in a single game. His previous 100-yard rushing game came last year against Houston when he gained 100 yards on 16 carries.
- Kinne's 100 yards rushing was Tulsa's first 100+ rushing game since Kinne rushed for 100 yards last year on November 7th against Houston. It is also the 14th time that a Tulsa quarterback has rushed for 100 yards or more.
- Kinne's 190 rushing yards is the third-most rushing yards for a Hurricane quarterback in school history. The top two QB rushing performances came from Steve Gage, as he rushed for 206 yards against Wichita State in 1985 and 212 yards against New Mexico in 1986.
- Kinne's two passing touchdowns gives him 44 career touchdown passes. The passes were also the 21st and 22nd of the season, moving him into a fifth-place tie on the single-season TD passes list.
- Damaris Johnson had 61 yards on three kickoff returns. He is now only three yards shy of tying the NCAA career record for kickoff return yards.
