2018 Wake Forest Football Preseason Opponent Preview: Tulane

In 2016, Wake Forest won a 7-3 squeaker against the Tulane Green Wave in the season opener. Thankfully, 2018 Wake Forest is extremely different from that group.

Running back Matt Colburn was the leading receiver for that game despite Cam Serigne, Scotty Washington, and Alex Bachman being on the roster. Obviously, this year is going to be (on paper) one of the strongest offensive units for Wake possibly ever, the only question mark being the quarterback position.

Tulane is coming off of a 5-7 season where they were inches away from making a bowl game, so they won’t be a pushover, but a lot of the hype around the program is based off of strong young players and a great recruiting class for Tulane, so I’d put it at equal odds that Tulane has a breakout year this year or next.
