Tulane plays its final home game of the season against American Athletic Conference foe Temple on Saturday at Yulman Stadium with kickoff scheduled for 2:30 p.m.
The Green Wave (3-7, 0-6 in AAC) will be trying to put an end to their current five-game losing streak and give first-year coach Willie Fritz his first conference win as Tulane coach.
Despite losing to Houston 30-18 last week, Tulane had a stellar performance from its defense and held the Cougars to a season-low 287 yards of total offense.
One of the defensive players the Green Wave will be looking to most for a big game on Saturday is defensive tackle Tanzel Smart.
