Tulane went from 2 wins in 2021 to 12 wins in 2022. The Green Wave return enough on both offense and defense to be the American Athletic Conference favorite to repeat as conference champs. Aiding the Green Wave is the fact Cincinnati, UCF, and Houston, Tulane’s top three rivals in the AAC, switched conferences to the Big 12. Check out Tulane’s 2022 betting records and our 2023 Green Wave betting guide.
Let’s see if the Tulane Green Wave have what it takes to back the betting odds to win the National Championship.

What is Tulane’s Straight Up Prediction this Season?
Tulane went 12-2 last season after beating UCF in the AAC Championship and taking down USC via a comeback victory in the Cotton Bowl.
The Green Wave mustn’t play the Bearcats, Knights, or Cougars this season, which gives Tulane a massive edge over their opponents.
The real key is whether returning quarterback Matt Pratt discovers a new WR1. Pratt lost his top two WR targets from last season: Shae Wyatt and Deuce Watts.
The Green Wave hope to replace Wyatt and Watts with Jha’Quan Jackson and Lawrence Keys III. A couple of transfers, Yulkeith Brown from Texas A&M, and Dontae Flaming from Louisiana, will also contribute.
As far as offensive line is concerned, Pratt should stand upright for the most of the season. Center Sincere Haynesworth and three other starting offensive linemen from 2022 return.
Prater threw 27 TD passes and rushed for 10. If Tulane’s QB develops a decent rapport with his new wide receivers, Prater’s stats could approach Heisman Trophy contender status.
On the defensive side, Tulane lost their top five tacklers from last season. The Green Wave face high-scoring opponents, so Prater and the offense will have to pick it up versus teams like UTSA, SMU, and Memphis.
The offense projects to be so good, the defense has some wiggle room. If the D is just stable, Prater and the offense will ensure victories.
Based on the fact Tulane mustn’t tackle Cincinnati, Memphis, or Houston this season, the Green Wave could go undefeated in the AAC with their lone regular season loss happening versus Ole Miss in their second game. An 11-1 straight up regular season record is a real possibility.
What will the Green Wave’s Against the Spread Record be this Season?
Last season, the Green Wave snuck up on oddsmakers. Tulane went 12-2 against the spread counting the victory over the Trojans in the Cotton Bowl and the win against UCF in the AAC Championship.
This season, Tulane won’t sneak up on anybody. The Green Wave will have a fantastic SU record, but against the spread, Tulane should revert to a more sensible 7-5.
What will Be the Over Under Total Record for Tulane Green Wave Games in 2023?
The total went 8-6 over-to-under last season. Many didn’t expect Tulane to send one of the conference’s, heck, one of the nation’s, top offenses to the field and the total still hovered around .500.
The total during the regular season should go 7-5 or 6-6 over-to-under. Oddsmakers will adjust game total lines knowing Tulane lost their top five tacklers and Prater and the offense will score plenty of points.
