Can the Green Wave Surge Past the Blazers at Devlin Fieldhouse?

As the Tulane Green Wave prepare to host the UAB Blazers at Devlin Fieldhouse, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent momentum. The Green Wave's performance has been a mixed bag in their past few outings, showing both resilience and areas for improvement.

In their last game against Memphis Tigers, despite a high-scoring second half where they put up 49 points, Tulane fell short with a final score of 78-90. Their field goal percentage stood at 38 percent and three-point shooting was slightly below par at 37 percent. However, they managed to sink 74 percent of their free throws and grabbed an impressive total of 40 rebounds.

The previous home game saw a thrilling victory over Temple Owls in overtime with Tulane scoring 92 points. They showcased remarkable efficiency from inside the arc with a two-point shooting percentage soaring to an impressive 68 percent and an overall field goal percentage of 55 percent. Free throw accuracy was also commendable at an outstanding rate of nearly 89 percent.

However, consistency is key for Tulane as evidenced by another past game against SMU Mustangs where they lost narrowly by four points (76-80). Despite this loss, there were positives; notably their assists-to-turnover ratio stood strong at approximately 2.43 and they blocked ten shots that night.

Tulane's ability to capitalize on turnovers will be crucial against UAB as well as maintaining defensive pressure without fouling excessively – something that has been challenging given the high personal foul counts in recent games.

Fans should expect an intense battle on February 25th starting at 3:00 PM local time (US/Central) when these two teams clash in New Orleans. With both teams looking to assert dominance in conference play, it promises to be an engaging matchup for those watching live from Devlin Fieldhouse or tuning into ESPN2 on channel number two hundred nine for national broadcast coverage.
