It’s been four years since the Golden Hurricane got the best of Willie Fritz’s Tulane team. On Thursday night in Tulsa though, it happened. Now give the Green Wave credit, they came to play and forced Philip Montgomery’s crew to double overtime before it was finally decided but this was Tulsa’s night. This (may be) Tulsa’s year.
Coming into Thursday nights showcase contest, the Golden Hurricane found themselves in unfamiliar territory, at least of late. They were ranked. Yes, coming in at #25 was Tulsa who were welcoming in a hot Tulane team that had won its last three.
