UTSA vs Tulane PredictionÂ
Tulane comes into this matchup looking to stay undefeated in conference play, but they barely escaped against Army last time out. UTSA allowed 55 points to North Texas in their last game and while they are capable of scoring a lot of points, they have scored 21 points or fewer in three of their last four. I do think UTSA will be able to keep this game competitive at home, but Tulane’s defense will make a few more plays. Take the Green Wave here.Â
