re: What moron decided that Tulane should leave the SEC in 1966?

A lot of Tulane students, especially law students, ended up not having a campus to go to during the fall semester of Katrina. This could explain why they were arseholes.

As a Loyola law student during Katrina, I ended up, along with the rest of the 1L class on the University of Houston's campus. Needless to say lots of my friends and I still enjoy watching the Cougs play.

For the record, I cheer for Tulane, UL or any other in state school as long as they aren't playing LSU. Thank God Loyola ended their football program. I'd hate to be split when it would come down to gameday.

Tulane leaving the SEC was a poor move, but a good one for LSU. Tulane's appeal is New Orleans, academics and the Superdome, even back then Tulane Stadium was a great place to play and hosted Superbowls. Them leaving allowed for LSU to be the unquestioned dominant power in the state.
