For the second time in three years, Tulane and Wake Forest will battle to kick off the season. Let's hope that this game has a tad more excitement than that 7 - 3 defensive struggle. The green Wave were close to qualifying for a bowl last year and plan on taking the extra step to get there this year. Wake had a tremendous year last year, beating Texas A&M in the Queen City Bowl, but must replace several skill players as they launch into 2018. It's time for kickoff so sit back, relax, and enjoy a little N'awlins and a lot of football.
