A new era of Tulane football begins this fall
Jon Sumrall takes over a Tulane program that Willie Frtiz left for the head coach job at Houston in 2024. Fortunately for the former Troy leader, he has plenty of weapons left over and several more have joined through the transfer portal. Namely, running back Makhi Hughes returns after an All-AAC performance and the AAC Rookie of the Year award last season.

These matchups on Tulane's 2024 schedule standout as particularly important or interesting.
Tulane and USF did not meet last year. As a result, Tulane fans did not have an in-person opportunity to see just how much the Bulls have improved under Alex Golesh, who took them to 7-6 after four total wins in the previous three seasons. With it still being somewhat early in the season, Tulane will need to be tuned up by this point.Memphis Tigers - November 28

Spoiling that potential run would likely be a major point of pride for Tulane.Joe covers college sports from the Group of Five ranks and beyond.
