115 Teams 'til Kickoff: Tulane

The Tulane Green Wave, who play in the New Orleans Super Dome, are not recovering as well from Katrina as their NFL stadium mates.

Tulane was the first team to go undefeated without a BCS invite (not even to a BCS bowl) in the BCS era in 1998. "You should have stayed in the SEC to prove your strength" people said at the time (though it was in 1966 that they left the SEC).

Head Coach: Bob Toledo (Fourth Year)
Offensive Coordinator: Dan Dodd (Fourth Year)
Defensive Coordinator: Steve Stanard (Second Year)

A look at Tulane's actual BCS numbers over the past few years next.

Yeap, still negative. This means that none will be inviting them to join their confernce to boost their BCS stats any time soon. The first ream with a positive score is #64, due out near the end of May.
