For Tulane, team effort needed to snap season-opening road losing streak

Tulane coach Willie Fritz is a creature of habit, so the Green Wave's first road game means more of the same preparation from the third-year coach.

"It's a team effort whether you win or lose," Fritz said. "I don't change my approach to games each week. I do the same thing every week, and the mature guys and the mature players do the same thing each week."

A repeat performance from last week is the goal for Tulane (1-1) as the Wave prepares for a noon kickoff Saturday at Legion Field in Birmingham against UAB.

But this road game could have a significant impact on the season with Ohio State and Memphis looming as the Wave's next two opponents.
