Through 2 Quarters
The Tulane Green Wave can't call it a day yet, but they are winning as expected. They have emerged as the frontrunner at halftime and are ahead of the Memphis Tigers 21-14.
The Green Wave have been led by QB Michael Pratt, who so far has passed for two TDs and 186 yards on 23 attempts in addition to punching in one rushing touchdown. WR Calvin Austin III has led the way so far for Memphis, as he has caught five passes for one TD and 110 yards. One of the most thrilling moments was Austin III's 59-yard TD reception in the first quarter.
Memphis might be down, but they've been down at the end of the second quarter five times this season and have won 60% of those games.

What to Know
The Tulane Green Wave are 1-4 against the Memphis Tigers since October of 2015, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Saturday. The Green Wave will take on Memphis at noon ET at Benson Field at Yulman Stadium after a week off. The Tigers should still be feeling good after a victory, while Tulane will be looking to regain their footing.
Tulane fought the good fight in their overtime game against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane two weeks ago but wound up with a less-than-desirable result, falling 30-24. Tulane was up 14 to nothing at the end of the third quarter but couldn't hold on to the lead. Despite the loss, they got a solid performance out of RB Stephon Huderson, who rushed for one TD and 106 yards on 25 carries. Huderson had some trouble finding his footing against the Army West Point Black Knights three weeks ago, so this was a step in the right direction.
The Tulane defensive unit accumulated four sacks. It was a group effort with six guys contributing.
Meanwhile, it was all tied up 7-7 at the half for Memphis and the Navy Midshipmen last week, but the Tigers stepped up in the second half for a 10-7 win. The overall outcome was to be expected, but the Midshipmen made it more of a contest than the oddsmakers had predicted. No one had a standout game offensively for Memphis, but they got one touchdown from QB Brady White.
The Green Wave are now 5-5 while Memphis sits at 6-2. Two defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Tulane enters the matchup with 33 sacks, good for third best in the nation. Less enviably, Memphis is fifth worst in the nation in passing yards allowed per game, with 313.9 on average.
