One common thread for the Tulane football team in its two losses has been how the game ended.
In both, the Green Wave had the ball with a chance to either win or tie in the final minute of regulation. Also in both, Tulane failed to score.
"We're making plays to be in the game," Tulane coach Willie Fritz said after his team's 31-24 loss Saturday at Alabama-Birmingham. "We're not making plays to end the game or finish the game or win the game. Where we're at right now, every game is going to be close.
