Tulane comes in at 26 at the latest AP poll, 28 votes ahead of north Texas. A good indicator of how humans not computers feel about strength of schedule. I'd be very unsurprised to see Tulane grab the #25 spot in Tuesday's CFP rankings

Coaches poll, which counts for absolutely nothing as it relates to the postseason, leaves all 3 AAC hopefuls out. James Madison cracks the top 25

Billy blowouts loves North Texas. Tulane is not going to catch UNT or USF in SP+ and likely will not get into the AAC title game on the computer average. The CFP ranking which is made by human beings and not Billy Computers supersedes. The path is simple, win out and be
SP+ is updated! Ohio State is pulling away, Hawaii (!) is surging, BYU's offensive ratings take a hit, and the ACC's closer to the American than the B1G. https://t.co/xiTg4qXCwH

Here's your first major CFP pundit putting Tulane in the g5 driver seat. Our guy @AndyStaples isn't alone either. I can bet you the committee watched a standalone Tulane Memphis on ESPN this Friday more closely than almost any g5 game this season

ESPN FPI is the holy grail of dumb hypothetical metrics. Tulane is ranked behind not one, not two, not three but FOUR teams they have beaten on the field. Any time you see an ESPN playoff indicator, realize it's based on this and be thankful a committee of human beings is in

The teams ranked 14, 15, 20, 22, 23 in the first CFP ranking lost today. We're going to find out how willing the committee is to rank g5 teams because the door is wide open. The hopeful list is at 4: Tulane, USF, UNT and James Madison. Tuesday will tell you a lot

Rowan Brumbaugh with a dominant second half to push the wave to 2-0. Ron Hunter haters will have to keep their tweets in draft for another day.

The CFP ranking is the ultimate trump card here. The other four computer rankings will not come into play if Tulane is ranked higher by the committee. The CFP committee has preached strength of schedule and strength of record. Tulane's wins over Memphis on the road and
Here are the AAC tiebreaker rules for those unfamiliar. Assuming the top 3 teams win out, it's going to get very interesting between Tulane and North Texas for a spot in a South Florida title game. Barring a loss, USF will host the title game. The bulls have the strongest tie

Retzlaff brings home the battle for the riverboat trophy with the win tonight. He becomes only the third QB in school history to beat Memphis at the Liberty bowl. The first two. Pratt in 2023 and King in 1998. Pretty good company for Jake

Jake Retzlaff. King in the south. Tulane defeats Memphis 38-32 and wins the Riverboat Rivalry. Sumrall has his first ranked victory. Conference championship berth and playoff berth are back on the menu. Holy cow what a roller coaster.

Defense rises to the occasion when needed most. Lewis heaves another prayer in the face of pressure and this time not so lucky. Turnover beads for Tchienchou!

Brutal to see Howard down. Making a huge impact in his return from injury. He's the soul of this D. First thing to go wrong all night

Touchdown Tulane! Retzlaff goes long again. This time to brown-Stephens. 12 is having a career game thus far. 8/8 for 210 and 2 tuds plus another on the ground. 4 Retzlaff drives 4 tuds. We haven't seen offense like this all season long, and let me tell you it's awesome.
