Re: Tulane Beats USC 46-45 to win the Cotton Bowl!

If we can win 8 or more for the next few years, a game like this can help punch a ticket into one of the "weaker" P5 leagues in due time. We're starting to stack up these "fun" games (UH games - like all of them, this entire season, the bowls that we won). This is TV $$ to those ...

They are a top five brand in the conference. Hell no. There are 7 programs that should get the boot before we consider that.

Fritz doesn't win them all, but I will say that his players seem to actually like the guy and the program.

I think he's the "teaching with love" type of coach.

Re: Tulane Crushes SMU 59-24!

Tulane is 3-1 as a ranked team and will stay in the polls for five straight weeks.

This is huge, as the voters might trust Tulane more and more in the coming years (if we can ever get back into the top 25).

Re: Jean Claude Joseph III Commits

When you're in the top 25 during the season, it creates hope - and that can pull kids in that you otherwise would not get.

Re: Memphis GameDay Thread

This season is about as good as last season was horrible.

Kinda glad that the Tulsa road trip is after a bye so the staff must dial in on it. That can be a dangerous place to play.

Re: We are #25

Here's the frustrating thing: Tulane was #26 at 5-1 a few years ago. It's not like the media and powers that be want Tulane to fail. Whenever we do anything of semi-note, there tends to be an ESPN blurb on it. When we are irrelevant, it's normally our fault and not that of the broken system. There i...

Re: Memphis Game Thread

This is one of those games that can define the growth of the fanbase. There is a massive amount of pressure paired with a Memphis team that has not much left to lose after two heartbreaking losses.

This is a dangerous game.

Re: USF GameDay Thread

We look like a decent 8-4 team. There are things we don't do that are keeping us from that next level.

With that said, this season will likely be a success when you add it all up.

Re: USF GameDay Thread

We'll probably drop this game and then light up Memphis at home. Tulane feels like the team that gets right up to the point of relevance and then fades.

There is still time to change this narrative, however.
