The Tulane Green Wave convincingly overpowered the South Florida Bulls, posting a 45-10 triumph at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans. Tulane surged ahead with an explosive start, posting a 31-0 lead, showcasing a relentless offensive onslaught driven by quarterback Darian Mensah, who delivered 326 passing yards and three touchdowns. Mario Williams was a key target, catching two touchdowns while Dontae Fleming added another score in a comprehensive performance by the Green Wave offense.
South Florida's attempts to counter were stifled by Tulane's tenacious defense, which not only forced multiple turnovers but sacked Bulls' quarterback Byrum Brown six times, two of which led directly to fumbles. Despite Brown’s eventual touchdown run and a field goal by John Cannon, the Bulls were unable to recover from the early deficit. Tulane's resounding victory extended their regular season conference winning streak to 11 games, affirming their position as a formidable force in the AAC.
