Projection: need to automatically qualify

Tulane’s résumé is a study in contrast: a neutral-site victory over Boston College and road wins at Louisiana and East Carolina demonstrate the team can win away from home, yet a lopsided home loss to New Orleans, a rough neutral outing at Utah State, a heavy defeat at Akron and a blunt neutral loss to UC San Diego are damaging blemishes that will linger with the committee. The offense has flashed the ability to put up points, but defensive inconsistency shown in those bad losses makes the profile fragile. The conference slate still offers clear repair opportunities with road tests at UAB, North Texas and Memphis and meaningful home dates against Wichita State and Tulsa, so how Tulane performs in those games will determine whether the strong road work and the quality neutral victory ultimately outweigh the damaging results.
