In front of a jam-packed TDECU Stadium crowd, the Cougars gave fans and alumni a homecoming to remember as they defeated the Tulane University Green Wave 30-18 Saturday afternoon.
The win marks the 14th in a row at TDECU Stadium, which is good for the third longest streak in the nation. With an offensive attack that featured just 221 yards passing and 22 yards rushing, football found the end zone early in the rout of Tulane.
“I am really proud of our guys,” Head coach Tom Herman said. “Especially the way that we came out in the first half, got special teams touchdowns, got some big stops by our defense, and our offense started clicking towards the end of the first quarter and second quarter.
