[Unofficial] Tulane Prediction Thread

52-24 Wake

Offense doesn't miss a beat. Tulane scores in 1st and 4th with nothing in the middle.
 
Jerry Palm hands us his pick (an underdog of a touchdown-plus he picks to win outright):

Upset of the Week

Wake Forest at Tulane (+7): Tulane has nine starters back on an offense that averaged 27.5 points per game a year ago. That unit will have to carry the weight for the Green Wave until the defense gets its legs. Wake Forest also figures to be a strong offensive team, but has to go with a backup quarterback while expected starter Kendall Hinton serves a three-game suspension. Pick: Tulane (+7)
 
Offense is shaky and conservative. Thinking something like 20-12 WFU.
 
Here's another CBS guy with a pick:

Pick: I've raved about Fritz, so here's a nod to Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson. He's also a bonafide program builder. There's depth that Wake Forest has that it hasn't had in a long time. However, I feel strongly that Tulane's signature win is coming. This game pairs the Green Wave's strength vs. one of Wake Forest's bigger question marks entering the season. ATS: Tulane, SU: Tulane

Given the apparent lack of good kicking at Tulane, two FG seems a stretch. Unless they are expecting Tulane to miss an extra point.

My bad. Meant to say they predicted 31-23
 
Slow start. Deacs up 17-14 at the half, but we get it rolling in the 2nd half and win it 37-20. Colburn, Carney, Beal go for 300+ on the ground.
