What happened
ESPN RECAPDominant first half pushes No. 25 Tulane past Memphis 38-28
NEW ORLEANS -- , Michael Pratt threw for a touchdown and ran for another score, Tyjae Spears ran for 125 yards and another TD and No. 25 Tulane celebrated its first Top 25 ranking since 1998 with a dominant first half and hung on to beat Memphis 38-28 on Saturday. The Green Wave (7-1, 4-0 American Athletic) scored on three of their first four possessions and took a 35-0 lead into the second half before the Tigers rallied. “A lot of good things, but there are some things we need to correct,” Tulane coach Willie Fritz said. “It’s always just better to do it from a win than a loss.” Seth Henigan had 257 of his 312 passing yards in the second half for the Tigers (4-4, 2-3), finishing with three touchdowns and two interceptions. Eddie Lewis hauled in two of the touchdowns, finishing with three receptions for 94 yards. “Obviously a disappointing loss,” Memphis coach Ryan Silverfield said.
