NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – Tulane improved to 5-1 (2-0) on the season, following the Green Wave’s 26-19 victory against East Carolina Thursday night.

Head coach Jon Sumrall recapped the Olive and Blue’s performance and highlighted key areas where his team needed to improve.

Tulane went into halftime up 12-0, but the score did not reflect the Green Wave’s dominance, due to the team’s redzone struggles: finishing the game with only two touchdowns on six red zone trips.

Penalties were also an issue. Tulane drew 11 flags for 96 yards.

After allowing 16-unanswered points though, the Olive and Blue rallied thanks to two fourth quarter scores and improved to 2-0 in conference play.

The Green Wave’s next game will be back at Yulman Stadium with a rematch of the 2024 American Conference Championship Game: hosting Army in an 11 a.m. kickoff on October 18th.
