“To be bowl eligible with three games left just shows where we are heading,” quarterback Justin McMillan said after the game. “We are trying to build a program here.”
It is the first time since 1997–98 that the Wave is bowl eligible in consecutive seasons and the first time since 1979–80 that Tulane is likely to play in a bowl in consecutive seasons.

“Consistently playing in bowl games and competing for conference titles is the new standard for Tulane football,” said Troy Dannen, athletics director. “Coach Fritz, his staff and our student-athletes have raised the bar for excellence for which our program is measured, and we could not be more proud of their efforts.”
