Tulane football has canceled its scheduled visit to Mississippi State in 2016, and according to the Clarion-Ledger, it is a move that will pay off for the Green Wave.

Despite needing to pay a $350,000 penalty as a result of breaking the schools' contract, Tulane will end up making more in the long run, as the Green Wave agreed to a more lucrative three-year series with Oklahoma. The series with the Sooners is worth a total of $1.
