This was a guy mentioned as a replacement for Mac. Looks like he has turned Tulane around pretty quickly. Winner -- Tulane coach Willie Fritz: He has a history of taking big steps forward during Year 2 of rebuilding projects. It looks like Tulane is next to take that step following a whopping 62-28 win over Tulsathat included 488 yards rushing. This was a 48-7 game at the half. Fritz has won everywhere he's gone, and at this rate, he's earning himself another job -- perhaps in the Power Five. Tulane may not win the AAC -- although at this point, who knows -- but they're going to be a thorn for a lot of opponents. This is a fun team. read more: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-winners-and-losers-week-6-strong-showing-from-state-of-texas/
