Tulane Green Wave

The Tulane Green Wave play home games at Yulman Stadium in the heart of New Orleans' Uptown neighborhood, one of the most distinctive campus-stadium settings in the country. Tulane blends academic prestige with a football program capable of real Group of Five heights, epitomized by its perfect 12-0 run in 2022. It's a program that treats every big season as a citywide celebration.

Tulane has fielded football since 1893 and enjoyed an especially strong run in the 1920s and 1930s, including an undefeated 1929 season that earned a Rose Bowl trip, though no recognized national title. After decades of inconsistency, the Green Wave's 2022 team went 12-0, won the American Athletic Conference, and beat USC in the Cotton Bowl — the program's best season in generations. Tulane remains a proud, historic name in Southern college football without a national championship to its name.
