Tulane football coach Willie Fritz asked his team a simple question Monday.

"On Monday when we had our team meeting, I asked the team how many guys think they can play in the NFL, and a bunch of dudes raised their hands," he said. "I said alright, show it Saturday because I know Oklahoma is going to have a bunch of guys that are going to be drafted."

That's the challenge for Tulane (1-1) Saturday at 5 p.m. in Norman, Okla., against No. 2 Oklahoma. The Green Wave is coming off a tough 23-21 conference loss at Navy, but the players welcome playing at 83,489-seat Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.
