You think the Dome is pissed that Tulane is trying to take the New Orleans Bowl?

Would be awesome, but GT will probably just schedule another game against Wofford

Tulane is not trying to take the NOLA bowl.

Per the football playoff contract the Dome may not be able to host the NOLA bowl anymore. Not sure if that is 100% what it is but that is the word.

Tulane is trying to get the NOLA bowl IF and when the Dome cannot hold the game

they can't host the NOLA Bowl anymore per the new playoff rotation rules though. Why would they be mad?

also, why do they have to cancel the entire series over this?

they can't just make the game at Tulane a TBA for the future?

Typical Rick Dickson, Tulane actually had a pretty nice OOC schedule set up this year.
