When this game headed to the fourth quarter, I had the following thought. We talk all the time about games that were not as close as the final score would suggest, due to some late scores or other shenanigans that were interesting but ultimately didn't affect the outcome. We talk a lot less often about … Continue reading Tulane Doesn’t Play Great, But Plays Good Enough to Become Bowl Eligible Against Tulsa
