The Green Wave slipped just one spot from #17 to #18, and honestly, that barely qualifies as a dip. When you stack 11 wins against only 3 losses, you're not a team scrambling for relevance — you're a program that has arrived. The slight rankings nudge says more about the congestion in that 15-20 range than anything Tulane did wrong.
Here's what matters: this is a roster that found a way to win consistently, week after week, and the voters noticed enough to keep them firmly planted in the top 20. Eleven wins is a banner you hang with pride. The Green Wave aren't a flash — they're a force that's built to last.
