Re: Line ⬆️ Tulane 3.5 pts. > SMU

We are wearing black unis. This is the kiss of death for Tulane football. Please Please Please prove me wrong tonight.

Re: SMU Score Prediction Thread (Football 2022)

I think this one will be close. I hope that we do not just let their QB sit back unpressured. Unfortunately, we will have to bring extra hats as our DLine has just not gotten much push. That could affect our coverage. SMU QB did not throw 9, 10, 100 tds against Houston because he got lucky. This sho...

Re: Comment on the reason for our great success so far

The primary reason for our success is that I have worn my lucky Tulane logo socks each week we were victorious. (They are ugly as hell, but still....). On USM gameday, my wife refused to go with me if I wore those ugly knee-high green socks with shorts. Reluctantly I acquiesced to her demands, and ...

Re: Complaining about lack of coverage here’s your chance

That's right. Its not even close as I just went back and reviewed. We are 27-24 at home since the stadium opened with some bad seasons in there. Our wins during those dump years were mostly at home. Fritz is 23-16 at home. W L 2014 2 4 2015 2 4 2016 2 4 2017 4 2 2018 4 2 2019 5 1 2020 3 2 2021 2 4 2...

Re: Memphis Score Prediction Thread

I think this game will be relatively close as they are better than their record shows. Outside of last week, due to a fumble inside their redzone, we have kept every team under 30. We keep under 30, I think we win. They only have 10 sacks on the year (to our 8) but they have 9 interceptions so Pratt...

Re: Michael Pratt

ECU came in prepared to stop the run and make us throw. They may have been expecting Horton and you always make the young less experienced kid beat you. Pratt answered though. I personally think Pratt still has a ways to go with reads and progressions but he showed much more this week. It helps that...

Re: SMU pulls a Houston, lol

Is it only 2 players? They arent big contributors so I am assuming they would be transferring anyways at the end of the year. NIL money does not come from the school so that is just a bad use of money. When are these kids getting the NIL money? Upfront, end of season, weekly? I personally think that...

The only question I have is why are we wearing the bad luck black pants this week? They have not treated us well in the past, but since we switch up unis every week now, the curse may be lessening. If it is to disrespect USM due to their colors, then let's beat them down in those britches.. Tulane 3...

Re: BIG Ball Play of the Day

It was also trickier because of the great play of our defense. So if you punt it away, you are expecting your defense to come up with a stop. If you dont make the 1st down, well you decided to put the game on your defenses shoulder knowing you may not make the first down. In all honesty, for TULANE ...

Honestly, it was a bit frustrating to watch the first half but I think we all knew, the coaches, the beer vendor, the birds on the lights, and the UMass fans knew we were going to win this game from the opening kickoff. Our DLine not having a presence in the first half was disappointing, but I think...

Re: Yulman Stadium Review/Changes

It is one thing to soften a schedule and then you go 11-1 vs Tulane who dumbed it down to go 2-10. If we had a soft schedule that guaranteed us 10 wins and building a national brand, I think we would all take it and people would show up. Double digit wins gets you notoriety. SMU has been doing it th...

Wow. Looks very nice. And all ever wanted was a wave pool....

As much as I do not like some of these other schools and fans, I will applaud them. Maybe it is a waste of funds in the end, but sitting idle and doing nothing also has become a waste of money.

We need a Tulane Athletics golf tournament again. Follow golf's suggestions and could raise some good money. I would fly in every year for it. Make it a fun event where locals that aren't the biggest Tulane fans would want to be a part of the event. Seems like a no brainer to me.
