I have been reviewing the schedule for the upcoming season and attempting to measure the difference in interest it may hold for Tulane fans, as opposed to last year's schedule.
Teams that Tulane played last year that appear on the 2005 schedule:
Mississippi State
USM
Houston
Navy
Team being replaced:
Florida A&M
Louisville
ECU
Memphis
UAB
Army
TCU
New teams:
SMU
SLU
UTEP
UCF
Marshall
Rice
Tulsa
Attempting to match them up, I think this year's schedule is much more attractive:
Florida A&M -- SLU. SLU hands down.
Louisville -- Marshall Marshall
ECU -- UCF no advantage
Memphis -- Rice, Rice has a decided edge
Army -- Tulsa Edge to Army
TCU -- UTEP no advantage.
Early success could produce a substantial increase in fan support.
