The argument for Tulane in the playoff?

Potential undefeated conference champ with two losses to power 5 programs (Oklahoma and Kansas St). The losses look better everyday and I’d much rather see them get an opportunity over Bama or another two loss team with a weak schedule.

Tulane 100% is a better team than Boise. Boise living off a 3 point loss to Oregon and a RB with crazy stats against mid competition.
Tulane blowing the KState game is killing them though.

It’ll be really tough for Tulane. First, every Big 12 team must have 3 losses to even have this conversation.
However, Tulane losing to the two power conference schools on their schedule hurts their case against a 3 loss team from the SEC as well, especially South Carolina (if they beat Clemson).
And if Clemson beats South Carolina, a 2 loss Clemson has a better resume than a 2 loss Tulane.

When you have a player thisexplosive, they can take over a game available anyone in any given day. It’s not that far fetched.

I understand he didn't build the team, but Tulanes HC has reeled off three straight really good seasons.

Boise has a 3 pt loss vs the nations top team
Tulanes power 4 losses are to two unranked teams
Also…Tulane plays in a horrendous conference just like Boise so that kinda cancels out

I watched that game. The refs flipped a switch in the second half and were not going to allow K-State to lose. Phantom Pl calls can decide any game.

I’d love to see Tulane in the playoff just to show they didn’t belong in it.

Great win over the Cajuns

Refs should be prosecuted for that game.

Tulane’s best win is against the Cajuns.

While the KSU loss is respectable, if you are a playoff team you shouldn't get blown out by a 6-5 Oklahoma team that will finish no better than 11th in the SEC.

OU beat Tulane 34-19 diff if 15
OU beat Bama 24-3 diff of 21
And it could be argued OU got lucky catching them early season while they sorted out things while Bama was later season when no secrets exist and teams are more seasoned.
I would 100% support Tulane in playoffs. They were ahead of KSU and gave up 2 4th qtr TDs. Tied at 27 and Tulane driving to take lead they fumbled and KSU took back for games last TD. Tulane out gained KSU by 100 yards.

SEC fans whining about strength of schedule of teams like Indiana and Penn State and ND.
SEC fans thinking Tulane should have a shot.

I'm fine wit tulane getting in. Their defense has looked good lately
If they can hold Memphis to 17 pts or less they will have a good argument

Hopefully Oregon St. beats Boise this weekend to give the G5 slot to Tulane.

Great thread demonstrating that the playoff is meaningless.
