Memphis vs Tulane Prediction
Last time out, Memphis visited the ECU Pirates and left with a 47-45 defeat in four overtimes. Memphis jumped out to a 17-0 lead, and led 20-13 midway through the third quarter, but ECU kept fighting back and eventually took the lead with 1:45 left. The Tigers drove right down the field and forced OT with a touchdown with 18 seconds left. Each team scored touchdowns in the first two OTs, both scored a two-point conversion in the third OT, but ECU was the only team that could convert in the fourth OT and the Pirates clinched the win. Seth Henigan went 27/37 for 407 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, and added one touchdown on the ground. Asa Martin rushed the ball 12 times for 59 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. Defensively, Memphis allowed 473 total yards and did not force any ECU turnovers.
Tulane continues their unbeaten conference run with a 45-31 road win against South Florida. USF kept this close for a while, leading after the first and being tied early in the third, but the talent gap took over midway through the third quarter. Tulane took the lead with 14 unanswered points and kept pouring it on early in the fourth. The Green Wave are riding high right now. Michael Pratt went 23/35 for 329 yards, two touchdowns, zero interceptions, and added two touchdowns on the ground. Tyjae Spears had 18 carries for 151 yards, an 8.4 average, and two touchdowns in the win. Defensively, Tulane allowed 377 total yards and recovered two USF fumbles.
