In a closely contested game at Yulman Stadium, the Tulsa Golden Hurricane's record fell to 3-7 after a narrow defeat by the Tulane Green Wave, who improved their impressive season to 9-1 with a final score of 22-24.

The Tulsa Golden Hurricane displayed an offensive spectacle against the formidable defense of the Tulane Green Wave. The passing game was particularly effective for Tulsa, with their quarterback throwing for 355 yards and achieving a passer rating of nearly 148. The aerial attack was highlighted by a remarkable 57-yard completion, which stood as the longest pass of the game. Despite being sacked twice, Tulsa managed two passing touchdowns and completed over half of their third-down attempts.

Tulsa's rushing offense contributed significantly as well, accumulating 122 yards on the ground with an average gain per attempt just shy of four yards. Their longest rush spanned an impressive 29 yards; however, they were unable to convert any rushing attempts into touchdowns.
