Coming off a thoroughly dominant win against UF, the FSU men’s basketball team traveled to New Orleans for a true road test against the American Conference’s Tulane Green Wave. Favored by 14.5, Florida State started as one might expect in an early season road game coming off a big home win—sloppy. However, Leonard Hamilton switched things up after halftime, throwing a zone at Tulane that provided utter confusion for a solid 10 minutes. This was long enough for FSU to extend the lead to 15 and keep the Green Wave at an arm’s length the rest of the game, good enough in the end for an 80-69 win.
