Tulane Green Wave Set to Surge Against Temple Owls at Devlin Fieldhouse

As the Tulane Green Wave prepare to host the Temple Owls at Devlin Fieldhouse, fans are buzzing with anticipation for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The Green Wave's recent performances have been a testament to their resilience and ability to adapt under pressure, which will be crucial against a determined Temple team.

In their last outing on December 22nd against the George Mason Patriots, Tulane fell just short, scoring 66 points compared to the Patriots' 69. Despite this narrow defeat, there were positive takeaways for Tulane; they showcased a robust defense with 12 steals and managed fast break points that kept them in contention throughout the game. Their shooting from beyond the arc was not as efficient as desired at 32 percent but expect them to have worked tirelessly on this aspect of their game.


The previous victory over Southern University Jaguars on December 16th was a display of offensive prowess by Tulane, who put up an impressive 105 points. Dominating in points in paint with 46 and converting an astonishing 79 percent from two-point range shows that when they find their rhythm, they can outscore any opponent. Their assists turnover ratio stood at an impressive 1.85 indicating a level of teamwork and ball movement that could prove pivotal against Temple.


An even more remarkable performance came during the double-overtime thriller against Furman Paladins where Tulane emerged victorious with a scoreline of 117-110 on December 15th. The high-pressure situation seemed only to elevate their gameplay; they made critical plays when it mattered most and demonstrated endurance through extended playtime.


Looking ahead, while TEM's statistics are not available for analysis here, it is known that any team stepping into Devlin Fieldhouse must contend with both Tulane's tenacity and the home crowd's energy which has often acted as a sixth man for TULN.


The upcoming game scheduled for February 4th at Devlin Fieldhouse is set for tip-off at around four o'clock local time (21:00 UTC). Fans eager not to miss any action should tune into ESPNU channel number two hundred eight where national coverage will ensure you catch every moment live from New Orleans.


With momentum building within TULN’s ranks coupled with strategic refinements post-George Mason game reviewal sessions – expect nothing less than full-throttle intensity from tip-off till final buzzer sounds off!
