Tulane does not really have a legitimate kicker on the roster, and should simply go for 2 pts. after every touchdown, no matter what the game circumstances are.

Was at the game. The Rutgers defensive coach was screaming at the defensive back on the left side for five minutes when the Tulane back got around the corner and made that nice run to the end zone. Your right about the kicking game or lack of it. The place kicker missed the extra point and a couple of field goals. Tulane could have had 7 more points and Rutgers could have had 38 points but sat on the ball for 3 plays at the Tulane 2 yard line to end the game. Was not impressed with the starting QB. Might be a duel threat but didn't have much of an arm. The backup QB that was in at the end of the game for Tulane seemed to have more zip on the ball for the few passes he threw. Good luck for the rest of the season. Hope to get to your new stadium in the coming years if I get down to New Orleans again on business. Love Bourbon Street when I'm there.

Thanks for the report.

I did not think Tulane would bowl this year. Schedule too strong and Tulane can't build a team in 3 years from where we were in 2011. The personnel's improving, but it's a process.
But we're playing sloppy - and beyond the kicker and the turnovers (which we didn't make yesterday)- and that's disappointing.
We need better direction on O. WE score on big plays; don't sustain drives. This is 2 years running.
