00:00
Tulane is a team that probably flirted with what would have been one of those
00:07
group of five automatic bids to the college football playoff in years past.
00:11
A great debut for John Sumrall last week for the Green Wave. He wins his opener at
00:17
the helm and the head coach of Tulane. He is now 24-4, first at Troy for
00:22
the last two years and now with Tulane he's got the third best win percentage
00:27
of all head coaches in college football. In the Big Easy this weekend, Tulane gets
00:32
ready to host K-State. Eight and a half points spread, Joe, in favor of the
00:36
Wildcats on the road. Kansas State on the road in this matchup. How do you see it
00:41
playing out? Well, the fact that it's in the Big Easy is the big difference. We
00:45
saw them go toe-to-toe with Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss last year. Ole Miss cover a
00:48
ten and a half point number and they knocked off K-State a couple of years
00:51
ago, 17-10. I think they run it, keep it within the number. I think Avery
00:56
Johnson and Kansas State are on upset alert today. I couldn't get there on this
01:00
game. I'd probably lean your way, Joe, if this was double digits. Maybe I need to
01:04
play it. It's one of these games, though, where if Willie Fritz was still here, I
01:07
think we would really be eye-popping on Tulane. He has so
01:11
consistently been so good against these bigger teams. We'll do Houston OU in a
01:16
bit here, but there's just too much change for me with Tulane to
01:20
trust them here under double digits against the K-State team that projects
01:25
to be really, really dangerous both sides of the ball. Last two years for the
01:28
Green Wave, three and two, both straight up and against the number as an
01:32
underdog. K-State last week knocking off UT Martin 41-6, slightly
01:37
missing out on a cover as a 36 and a half point favorite. Avery Johnson, shaky
01:42
really in his debut, now taking the mantle in the Little Apple. 153 yards, two
01:47
touchdowns in INT, but 37 yards on the ground. DJ Giddens last week, 13 carries
01:54
124 yards. The lead back for K-State put up at least 115 in the final four
01:59
games for the Wildcats a season ago, but Tulane, good against the run.
