Re: Wave chances for Playoff

UNLV has an impressive schedule (for a G5) with three P4 teams plus Oregon State. I wonder how long ago that came to be (other than OSU), because it's pretty bold to schedule three especially if it was before they recently "got good". Of course it's probably easier for them to get deals w...

Defensive End

Looking at the participation chart for the Oklahoma game, I noticed Terrell Allen, Javon Carter, and Deshaun Batiste did not play. Any chance these guys are hurt?

Re: Wave chances for Playoff

You realize that two losses were always the most likely scenario and what was predicted by pretty much every pundit ? Those aren’t even bad losses as they are both Top 15 teams (not even top 20 teams) and we had chances with the ball to win the game late in the 4th quarter in both games. We even ou...

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

Obviously lots of disappointment, I think because we have the talent to compete and could be 3-0 without anything outlandishly different. While I would like to see Thompson a bit more (and he did get in more against Oklahoma), I vehemently disagree that Mensah's starting job should be in jeopardy. ...

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

It sickens me neither of the other QBs were given chance. The only logical explanation is we are playing for just the conference or for next year. We never went 4 wide and always went 6-7 man protection which tells me they are trying to protect the QB. To do so might have sapped Mensahs confidence....

Re: Wave chances for Playoff

I think it will be a tight race between Memphis, Boise, UNLV, Toledo, and N. Illinois for the G5 slot. Really been impressed with UNLV. Very physical on both sides of the ball. So based on Tulane losing tight games to top 20 teams, and on Memphis beating a horrible FSU team, you've written Tulane o...

Re: Tulane vs ull

SP+ has ULL as a 5 point favorite vs. Tulane, resulting in one of the biggest differences from Vegas this week which has Tulane as a 3.5 point favorite.

The Cajuns are no joke. Another tough game for the 🌊 ahead.

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

Totally agree with him. The top 30 should just break away and let the rest play college sports. The system is broken, rigged, corrupt, and controlled. I could have used 40 more words but decided this was enough. Y'all do realize if the top 30 break off Tulane football becomes irrelevant to about 60...

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

UL and USF can certainly beat us and no one nationally would be surprised. These are tricky games coming after two very physical games we lost. We are a 3 pt favorite this week and will probably be the same next week. Our PK is hurt and we need him in these two games. I expect us to win every game, ...

This playoff talk is ridiculous. We are 1-2, and don’t look like a team that can run the table. Let’s just go 1-0 and have a week where we pressure the QB several times a game.

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

Only three games in, with a lot of frustration during the last two--I'd expect the team to be in the mood to beat the crap out of someone. Absolutely, my money is on this too. I didn't so much mean a rough spot for the team as simply kind of a lose-lose situation in analysis. Win big, means little....

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

But the knock on Thompson is he has no accuracy. You don’t play a QB who cannot throw the ball unless you are Army or Navy. If he was the answer, he would have won the job. You don't *start* a QB who cannot throw the ball. But there's no reason we shouldn't have had 1-2 mostly scripted series in ev...

Re: Lose by 15 to Oklahoma

Not saying Horton is the answer. He can’t run either. Thompson is the best athlete on the team, and he needs to play more if not start. Mensah is a good passer, but he is a freshman and freshman will make mistakes that cost games. The good news is we don’t play another defense as good as OU or KSU ...
