Tulane vs. South Alabama Pick
Spread Pick for Tulane vs. USA
- Tulane Green Wave -10.5 (4 Units)
The Green Wave looked good offensively in their first game, especially on the ground, where they racked up close to 270 yards. The Jaguars were unable to stop the run in their first game, giving up more than 180 yards on the ground, and they’re facing a much better team in terms of talent, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Green Wave.
South Alabama will also struggle offensively in this game because it won’t be able to throw the ball against the Green Wave, who held Northwestern under 200 passing yards and had four interceptions. Their inability to throw the ball will allow the Green Wave to stack the box and slow down their ground game, so expect them to have a hard time keeping up with the Green Wave. Take Tulane to cover the spread.
