Interesting Tulane Observation

Harry · September 23, 2013

One of our members sent me this interesting factoid...

ULM gave up 70 to Baylor.

Now ULM is 12 pt fave vs Tulane.

Most teams are going to give up tons of points to Baylor. That offense is a well oiled machine.

Baylor could drop 70 on a lot of FBS teams.

Saw this post from a ULM fan:

"Complete melt down in first quarter. We had two pick sixs and a fumbled kickoff that result into 21 points. Baylor is very good and sure didn't need our help. We have serious redzone scoring problems too and it's been this way all season."

Baylor also called off the dogs in the 4th. They scored 70 in 3 quarters.

Didn't Rice put up 77 on us in 3 quarters back in 2008. I hope we repay them for that this year....with a victory of 1 point or more.

I'm not much of a fan of comparing scores or what lop-sided scores can do to a team (sometimes) and on that subject I will go back to our own football history.

In 1975 (hear we go again) but get this.

That season we got shellacked early in our schedule by Oklahoma State something to the tune of 61 to 7...

.....then we beat the UH Coogs the year before they entered the SWC (going to the Cotton Bowl in their Year 1) 28 to 0 at Texas Stadium.

......finally.......... Coach Fry and his rag-tag Texans (a media description of his team) made a little

trip to Knoxville, Tennessee, and with his 3'rd string QB they'd win the game and all come home to a hero's welcome at Love Field with the Dallas Times Herald giving our team and our fans a nice Sunday AM front page headline and color photo. It was one for the books that got much state-wide, regional and even national attention. (Tennessee finished 6 & 5 the year we beat them so they were not chopped liver; and by today's standards both Tennessee and North Texas would have been bowl teams).

Coach Mac is on schedule to do the same with this Mean Green football program, too.

In Year 1 right after his hiring many of us said....Year 3 for Coach Mac to start making hay with this program....I think we'd all stand by that today.

GMG!

ULM is at home in this game. Us UNT fans know how important that can be.

They crapped themselves at Baylor. Complete meltdown.

Take a look at their game at OU. A little more respectable.

Just wait until Baylor plays OU. Baylor should be the favorite to win the Big 12, and I think they would give A&M a run for their money.
