Tulane vs. Louisiana Pick
Spread Pick for Tulane vs. Louisiana Spread
- Tulane -5.5 (4 units)
We haven’t seen much to be impressed with when it comes to offensive production for the Ragin’ Cajuns in the first two games of the year. Louisiana is among the worst offensive units in the country in the opening week of the season. That doesn’t bode well against a Tulane team that has to be flying high after rallying from 20 points down to take down Texas State in their previous game. Brumbaugh was named AAC Player of the Week for his efforts for the Green Wave, and we know that they are efficient on the offensive end. This game may well come down to work at the charity stripe, and that works in Tulane’s favor. After all, the Green Wave is 42 of 43 at the line while the Ragin’ Cajuns are 12 of 21. Take Tulane here to earn the victory.
