Tulane University is no
stranger to competition in a post-season bowl match, but this year's venture
into bowl territory marks a first since the team's inception. This is Tulane's
third straight competition in an annual bowl match, and the first time that the
team has ever had such a streak. The bowl in question, of course, is the famed
Idaho Potato Bowl. Held annually in, you guessed it, Boise, Idaho, this match
is a well-loved tradition within the state and a point of pride for any team
with the privilege to participate. The match will be held at 2:30 p.m. central
time on December 22, so be sure to tune in to a sports broadcasting network such
as ESPN on your radio, television, or streaming device, should you want to
catch the match live.
Unfortunately, no in-person participation from fans will
be allowed; only the teams and necessary staff will be on the field when the
match starts. Seeing as how COVID-19 cases have recently seen a dramatic spike,
holding a heated sports match viewed nationally with a tremendous number of
fans shouting and sweating while packed in close vicinity would not be the
wisest choice. But ESPN will be streaming and televising the match, and you can

to watch the livestream when the time comes.
Tulane's Green Wave is an offensive force to be reckoned
with, averaging a remarkable 218.9 yards of ground taken every game. When compared with the whole nation,
this puts Tulane in 18th
place. Defensively, too, the team is a massive threat, with nearly three-and-a-half
sacks on average every single game, placing them 12th nationally and in the
first place of teams in the American Athletic Conference.
