In their recent game against East Carolina Pirates, Tulane showcased a solid defense and an efficient offense. They managed to keep the Pirates at bay with only 9 points while scoring 24 themselves. The team's punting game was strong, averaging nearly 45 yards per punt and placing three within the 20-yard line. Their passing game was particularly effective with an outstanding completion percentage of 80 percent for a total of 350 yards and two touchdowns.


The previous match-up before that saw Tulane narrowly outscore Houston Cougars by three points in a tight contest. Despite two fumbles and one lost, they maintained composure to secure victory through strategic plays and consistent kicking, even though they missed one field goal attempt.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing as evidenced by their encounter with Southern Miss Golden Eagles where they fell short by three points. Although they amassed over 450 total yards with significant contributions from both rushing (204 yards) and passing (247 yards), turnovers proved costly in this closely contested battle.


As we look towards the upcoming game at Raymond James Stadium – known for its raucous atmosphere which could play into home-field advantage – it will be crucial for Tulane to maintain their defensive solidity while capitalizing on offensive opportunities as they have shown in past performances.


Fans can catch this exciting matchup scheduled for October 15th at 8 PM UTC on ESPNU network. With both teams eager to assert dominance, this is set to be a pivotal clash in college football's competitive landscape.
