While the stadium is 10 years old it should be noted this is our 11th season playing in it.

Great to hear Graf’s calls. Maybe it’s me, but when I hear Graf, I know I’m listening to someone that cares about Tulane as much as I do.

You know #1 is going to be the CCG win over UCF and storming the field. That night is when Yulman officially became “ours” and will forever live in my memory. It also lives in the hallway between my living room and kitchen as a freeze shot of the ESPN screen with the score and the crowd storming the field is displayed proudly.

I wish Graf was still doing our games! He's the best

While it's hard to argue against the championship as the greatest event, the greatest single moment was the ending TD to beat Houston.

Tyjae’s TD run vs UCF in the Championship game was it for me.

TPS, I agree that’s the best play. But the best moment was the clock ticking down and the field being swarmed, IMHO.
