Willie or Won’t he?

If Tulane wins the coin toss, will Coach Fritz defer to the 2nd Half?

It would be massive if Defense gets an early stop to start the game!

Re: All AAC team

Fantastic! Well deserved.

Smart to do both a third team and honorable mention list with the additional teams.

Congratulations to all the award winners.

My only gripe is that if you went 4 Kickers (including two of third team) then Valentino should have been one of the 4.

Re: More Tickets now available for AAC Championship Game! Get em quick !

Do we think there is the demand for 1,000 more student tickets (same count as last year)?

Happy to give a credit card/check to make it happen if we feel like students will be left out.

Very smart to open this up now. Also, if you want to add more seats or get tickets for the first time, it is open season on some great priced 2024 season tickets ($99 and $175) available - no donation required. Kansas State in Yulman should be a blast. Tulane AD should net a little more, even with k...

Re: is there still a David Harris press conf. today

There was no reason for that assistant AD to be a dick about the lady asking a question. He allowed only one more question anyway. Agreed.

He said he owes it to his former employer to wrap up certain items back there. Troy Dannen couldn’t do this because he’s a good bit narcissist that needed his “look at me everyone” moment during College GameDay and an unprecedented Huskies football run that could end any week. He made sure he was w...

Re: PRATTometer: Michael's Place in the Record Books

Just one note from Friday’s game, Tulane has now won its last 14 games when Michael Pratt has been the starting QB.

I am pretty sure that is some sort of Green Wave QB record as well.

Re: AAC Championship Game Tickets - Almost sold out

There will be tickets available. This kind of buzz this early in the week makes people just make alternate plans instead of committing to going.

I am sure SMU is going to return some from their block too. They are not supported by masses.

Houston has a softer schedule next year and Tillman might just want someone to assure that they aren’t a basement team in their new conference and were a respectable choice. Show you belong for 3 or 4 years then you go get the guy who competes for Big 12 titles. The rumblings don’t worry me as much ...

Re: SMU

SMU hasn’t seen a comparable defense in months.

I don’t care if Tanner Mordecai finds a way to start for the Mustangs next Saturday.

Our defense is arguably playing its best football all year right now. Also, this game is at Yulman. We will be loud.

Valentino has the most made Field Goals in AAC in 2023 at 19. He went 19 of 24 for 79.2% and was perfect on PATs at 38 of 38.

Three other AAC kickers had better FG%.
