Tulane vs Oklahoma Stats
Tulane Green Wave
The Tulane Green Wave put up a strong fight against Kansas State, nearly pulling off an upset before ultimately falling 34-27. Despite the loss, Tulane covered as 9.5 point underdogs, bringing their ATS record to 2-0, and the combined score of 61 surpassed the 47.5 O/U line, evening their O/U split to 1-1. Redshirt freshman QB Darian Mensah had an impressive game, completing 19 of 29 passes for 342 yards with 2 touchdowns and 1 interception. A controversial offensive pass interference call in the final seconds of the game negated a potential game-tying touchdown for Tulane. The team's offense is averaging 481 yards per game, with Mensah completing over 70% of his passes and wide receiver Mario Williams averaging 25.2 yards per catch. The defense held strong on key downs, allowing K-State to convert just 2 of 10 third downs. Tulane is currently ranked 22nd in offense, 12th in defense, with a power ranking of 54, and holds a 1-1 record (2-0 ATS) this season.
Oklahoma Sooners Analysis
The #15 Oklahoma Sooners are off to a 2-0 start to the season, but had a lackluster performance in their recent 16-12 victory over Houston. Starting QB Jackson Arnold acknowledged that the win was not pretty, but emphasized the importance of securing a victory. The Sooners' offense has shown improvement since their dominant win over Temple in week 1, but did struggle against Houston, scoring just 16 points. Despite these offensive struggles, the defense has been a strong point for the team, allowing only 15 total points in the first two games. The defense has recorded 8 sacks and created 8 turnovers, including 5 fumble recoveries. While the defense has been reliable, the offense has struggled to convert on 3rd downs, resulting in a low time of possession rate. Oklahoma is currently ranked #19 in power rankings and #24 for offense, scoring an average of 51.00 points per game and allowing an average of 3.00 points per game on defense. In their last three matchups, Tulane has gone 2-0 against Oklahoma.
Tulane Braces for Tough Matchup Against Oklahoma Sooners Following Disappointing Loss
Tulane's recent loss to K-State has been disappointing for the program, particularly due to the missed opportunity for a victory. However, the team must quickly shift their focus as they prepare to face the formidable defense of the Oklahoma Sooners this week in Norman. The Green Wave's offensive line will be tested by the aggressive Sooners, potentially impacting Mensah's performance. On the defensive side, Tulane's struggles may provide an opportunity for Oklahoma to excel offensively. With key receivers like Jali Farooq injured and Nic Anderson uncertain for the game, the Sooners may adjust their strategy to involve RB Gavin Sawchuk more actively. Given Tulane's defensive weakness against the run, Oklahoma is expected to have the advantage in this matchup. Bettors may consider a wager on the Sooners at a spread of -13.5, while also having the option to purchase a half point for -120.
