@@TheWaveRolled Wasn't sure what year it was. During demolition they gave me a pickup load of bleacher boards. It was the best sappy pine I've ever known.
I watched on TV, but I could feel the players saying to USC after each comeback score: "We ain't going away!" and they never did. This game is what "never quit" means. It was a great life's lesson to all young athletes of any sport or persuasion.
Ucf fan. Was in the band from 16-19. Got to go to peach bowl and fiesta bowl with our undefeated team. I hope you guys enjoyed the experience because I will always remember those trips and those emotions. Great game!
I'd love to give them some credit, but pretty much every team in the country is capable of turning around and handing the ball off. The Trojan defense is beyond horrible :\
@@harrysurtees8710 we watched him coach for 5 years. Brother, I have some bad news: This is as good as it gets. Hopefully your next QB is capable of carrying the entire team on his back like Caleb, because the defense won’t get any better.
@@phillipparker8947 no sir THIS ONE WAS FAR WORSE. Tulane is nowhere near as good as Utah. And usc did not have a 15 pt lead on Utah with 4:30 to play.
@@CoryJAdventuresNow they can tell some Louisiana recruits you can play here and not have to play Alabama every year and still go to the league since you get to play games in the Super Dome.
One of the best games I’ve seen in person. Energetic atmosphere with great fans on both sides, not to mention a terrific game from start to finish. Congrats to Tulane
They went to three straight bowls before last year and last year they were away from home for over a month due to Ida. I get the story sounds good but Tulane fans new they were waaaay better than 2-10 last year. Ask Oklahoma.
Students, Alumni, Grad students, even staff- we have seen TU FOOTBALL do it all - over the years!!! But, we have never witnessed what brought many of us to tears today at the COTTON BOWL with this win! CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU ALL: Team, Head & Asst. Coaches, fans who were there to witness one of the BEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAMES IN HISTORY!!! Your commitment, hard work, determination and selflessness is what you should be most proud of! We cannot wait until next year to see what else you may bring to all of us, to future students and players; and what your new challenges may be! SINCERE THANKS! I am sooo glad that was in that number!
Congratulations 🎊 Tulane! I'm so proud of you guys for having such an awesome season and shutting up all of the doubters! And you guys did it on a nationwide stage 👏. Louisiana Proud 👏 What a great game!! 👍🏽 🎊🎈🎉✨️🏈
I was at this game with my 12 year old son. It was one of the best memories with him and probably the most exciting bowl game I’ve attended. Man, Jerry World was rocking that day. So much fun.
I'm a TCU fan who was at the game rooting hard for Tulane. We used to be the "little guy" too before our school went to the Rose Bowl, so I am super excited to see Tulane win this one!
As a Trojan fan I must say Tulane played a great game all the way until the end. Those 4th down conversions were clutch. Congrats on the win. I'm hoping SC can field a better defense next year.
That team will rebuild its defense and offense and will look scary in the years to come. When USC join the BIG conference, they will get their recruiting class on a national level and be a threat to college football!
@@Nicetry9999 didn't a divisional 3rd place team just demolish your conference champ, out there? Usc ucla, etc always playing virtually a home game for the rose bowl and then brag how great you are. Let's see them come to the big house, happy valley, or the shoe, even Madison in November. Those hicks will deliver the cold licks.
Reason why I love the expansion of the playoffs… Gives the little schools a CHANCE against the BIG boys… USC thought they were better & had the win on lock… Love watching this so much..
@@somebodyandthem how does it devalue the championship? When has a playoff bracket every devalue the title? March Madness? NBA? UEFA Championships League? NFL?
Understand your reasoning, but it's one thing for a "little school" to win a game in which they're underdogs, much more difficult to win three or four in what will be the twelve team playoff.

Lincoln Riley is not a good head coach. We have seen this exact game from him so many times. I don’t care if his quarterback can put up 45 points if his defense is going to give up 46. He is terrible at building a Defense.

All i can say is - this is the absolute best bowl season i can remember! There have been so many close & exciting games. By my count, of the 41 bowls played so far - 22 have been decided by within 1 score. And we still have one more game to watch. The defending national champion Georgia Bulldogs against Max Duggan & the "nobody predicted this" TCU Horned Frogs! Should be a good one.
As an Irish fan, what a great weekend this has been for me! 1. Notre Dame beats South Carolina in the Gator Bowl 2. Michigan gets humiliated by TCU in the Playoff 3. USC loses a shocker to Tulane! I have never gone into a Monday evening as a happier fan than I am right now!!!
You forgot... clemson was also supposed to walk all over tennessee who weren't playing essentially any of their offensive starters and about 2/3ds of their defense
I had so many special moments at Tulane and I became intrigued with this team last year. I thought this team was going to do something great this year because they lost so many games very close last year. Losing is the best teacher and that helped them build resilience. This will be a turning point for Tulane football Roll Wave!

@@Nicetry9999 USC got a beat down by Tulane... LMFAO... way to make the excuses... yer killin me!!! they didn't play their studs? who did they play then? keep on crying sweetheart... =)
I certainly didn't think that, seeing as how they've struggled with lower quality teams during the regular season. I actually think it's good that they chose this match up since anyone else would've steamrolled Tulane.
USC was too good to lose this game. You can't win championships without playing defense. That just goes to show how many good teams are out there that deserve a chance to play in the CFP. Hopefully when the 12 team expansion starts in 2024, we'll see which teams are better than we think. Congrats to Tulane and all the Bowl champs this 2022 season. I can't wait to see what happens next season!
I went to this game after finding a $50 ticket in a decent section. This was my first time attending a big time Bowl game and it did not disappoint! Way to go Tulane! Roll Wave!
I disagree. I am wondering why USC's last play was on the eleven yard line? Why, what happened on the kick-off? There was 8 or 9 seconds left when Tulane scored?
One of the most beautiful games in college football history. A small private school from New Orleans beats the Heisman and one of the biggest sports programs in the country. LOVE.
I bet Tulane in this game and thought I was deader than a doornail about 5 different times. God bless the Green Wave, they never quit. Really happy for their students, alumni, and fan base. So great to see their program with renewed vigor, especially after that great new stadium got built. I've watched Tulane football since the 70's and when they were playing in the near empty dimly lit Superdome it felt like they were playing in a mausoleum.
Congrats Tulane! Kept at it. The play by play man for ESPN was great! Lot of energy but the broadcast as a whole (this is on the executive producer) sounded more like a Caleb Williams infomercial than a bowl game, the sponsor even made him tv game mvp before the game was even finished.
On a scale from 1 to countless, this Cotton Bowl will go down as a classic. One solitary point. Tulane had the greatest comeback in college football history. Biggest bowl win in many decades. 👏👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳🥳
Your team sucked so bad that you have to get your enjoyment from another team losing. Pretty sad if you ask me. I wonder when you fools will ever get Lincoln Riley out of your head because it's a mental illness at this point.
@@tslegers that may be true but at least we best Tulane last year. Y'all want that high-power offense with a Heisman QB. You can have it. You will not have a defense that can win you games against really good teams
When I got off work USC was up 45 to 30 with 4 minutes to go. I thought we had won the game. USC came to play their defense let him down again. Congratulations to Tulane for a great year
Shout out to USC for playing a good game against a legit Tulane team! There’s no shame in losing this one; could’ve gone either way! Congrats Tulane! Enjoy the hard fought victory!
The PAC 12 as a conference is a joke as there is not a single team in that pathetic conference that knows how to play defense and that is why the leading team in that conference USC was denied entry to the CFP.
Played them boys and thought we didn’t give our best shot to them however I didn’t expect them to continue to get better throughout the year…2 championship games and won both they did their thing
Duece Watts is a absolute DAWG for holding on that ball while getting KO. Play of the game if he fumbled that's game but that fact he holds on it AMAZING
Coach Riley has trouble winning big games. Riley had Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, and Jalen Hurts in succession at Oklahoma, and failed to win a natty. The Sooners were slobberknocked by Riley's departure, however, I think OU will be the better team long term.
@@beckyhenson6459 Only if you are dumb would you say that. There are 130 D1 colleges and universities eligible to compete for the NCAA National Championship and six elite "big games". That's 12 head coaches that get to go to "big games" and 118 head coaches that don't. To go to one of the "big games" is an accomplishment in itself which is why I said at least he gets to go to big games.
Tulane won me over, as my new favorite college FTB team. Sorry Virginia Tech. always knew Pratt was special... and Spears is electrifying!!! So proud of the Green Wave for pulling this one out over big bad USC!!!!

They only came out of nowhere to people that aren’t paying attention. Ask any fan of any team in their conference and they’ll tell you, it was coming.
That’s cap… they had a terrible record the previous year. We knew they’d be solid but nowhere near this good.

That comeback was insane 🔥
I went to this game after finding a $50 ticket in a decent section. This was my first time attending a big time Bowl game and it did not disappoint! Way to go Tulane! Roll Wave!
Incredible just incredible. Became a fan of Tulane when Nico Marley was playing LB. So happy for this football program
hats off to tulane no one expected them to come this far and win agains a really good usc team
Good game Tulane. Way to win one for the little guys!
This was a REALLY well-put-together highlight reel. A lot of ESPN's highlight videos are just trash... this one was great.
I disagree. I am wondering why USC's last play was on the eleven yard line? Why, what happened on the kick-off? There was 8 or 9 seconds left when Tulane scored?
One of the most beautiful games in college football history. A small private school from New Orleans beats the Heisman and one of the biggest sports programs in the country. LOVE.
It was a good year for the underdogs in bowl games. A lot of fun games.
What a game
And then some!
Hardly anything else you can say frrr.
The WORST CHOKE of 2023. There WILL NOT be one worse than that.
Very proud to be from New Orleans, even more so now. Great game Tulane!! And LSU destroyed Purdue. Great day for Louisiana
I'm Louisiana Proud also! We did our thing on the football field today 🙌 👏 💪🏿
Yes indeed the boot gonna party 🎉 we will be even stronger next season
🌊💚🏈
And the Saints beat the eagles yesterday
@@stsproductions12 absolutely we did!
As a Sooners fan, nothing makes me happier than seeing Lincoln Riley blow another game. Tulane beat Riley at OU in 2021, back to back!
Nothing makes me more unhappy than to see Lincoln Riley coaching USC. NO DEFENSE COACH stricks again.
Grinch really knows how to give up real estate….😂
Tulane did not beat Oklahoma
I bet Tulane in this game and thought I was deader than a doornail about 5 different times. God bless the Green Wave, they never quit. Really happy for their students, alumni, and fan base. So great to see their program with renewed vigor, especially after that great new stadium got built. I've watched Tulane football since the 70's and when they were playing in the near empty dimly lit Superdome it felt like they were playing in a mausoleum.
This was the best bowl game for that season by far.
Congrats Tulane! Kept at it. The play by play man for ESPN was great! Lot of energy but the broadcast as a whole (this is on the executive producer) sounded more like a Caleb Williams infomercial than a bowl game, the sponsor even made him tv game mvp before the game was even finished.
Probably should have been Spears.
@@easyenetwork2023 Yes but ridiculous for Capitol One to call him for rewarding performance with 3 mins left in the game.
I'm guessing Tulane gave the game ball to USC's defense!
@@harrysurtees8710 Nah, they’d just drop it…haha!
This was fantastic.. Congratulations Green 🌊..
Me too
"Feel like the glory days are coming back" for USC the commentator says around 10:20. Haha - good one!
We know who their favorite is…..pfft
On a scale from 1 to countless, this Cotton Bowl will go down as a classic. One solitary point. Tulane had the greatest comeback in college football history. Biggest bowl win in many decades. 👏👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳🥳
The head coach of Tulane did a helluva job winning 12 games great job beating usc to boot
Saints won on Sunday, LSU and Tulane won today, a great start for Louisiana football in 2023!
Yep.
As a OU fan. I'm happy USC losing the PAC 12 championship game and this game as well. This made me happy. This was a good year.
Nasty as usual.
USC has lots of work ahead of them. They are fortunate to be a 3 loss team this year. Not many teams can pull that off with a bunch of transfers
I guess it's the little things, cause OU hasn't beaten SC since 1971.
Your team sucked so bad that you have to get your enjoyment from another team losing. Pretty sad if you ask me. I wonder when you fools will ever get Lincoln Riley out of your head because it's a mental illness at this point.
@@tslegers that may be true but at least we best Tulane last year. Y'all want that high-power offense with a Heisman QB. You can have it. You will not have a defense that can win you games against really good teams
When I got off work USC was up 45 to 30 with 4 minutes to go. I thought we had won the game. USC came to play their defense let him down again. Congratulations to Tulane for a great year
How is it just the defense fault?
Not a fan of either team but a fantastic game! A good case of never give up. Congratulations to Tulane!
Shout out to USC for playing a good game against a legit Tulane team! There’s no shame in losing this one; could’ve gone either way! Congrats Tulane! Enjoy the hard fought victory!
Is this what it’s come to for USC? There’s plenty of shame in loosing too Tulane, your USC for goodness sake lmao
The PAC 12 as a conference is a joke as there is not a single team in that pathetic conference that knows how to play defense and that is why the leading team in that conference USC was denied entry to the CFP.
WHAT A GAME! And what a day for Louisiana!! LSU and Tulane! Great job boys!
Who did LSU beat?
@@brendamckeithan9881 Purdue University
Age of aquarius at hands
Way to go Tulane 🌊!!
KARMA!!
USC takes Oklahomas coaching staff, 40 players and 90% of the 2022 recruiting class=KARMA came back for its pay back!
I was at the game and the finish was electric. Tulane’s got heart and grit🌊
Usc didn’t play there studs so Tulane earned the biggest win in program history.
@@Nicetry9999 Well I guess we’ll never know if the result if their studs played, good luck next year 👋🌊
When Tulane beats USC and ends up finishing a season with a better record than USC and others, it tells us that the talent gap is closing fast
“he got moved so good he seems like he should be in the Jackson 5” 😂 5:00
Lincoln Riley doing Lincoln Riley things. I see some things never change.
Congrats to Tulane. What a day for them.
Love seeing coaches run along the sideline with the play
them Tulane boys came to childrens hospital an gave my baby girl so love thank you boys keep up the hard work 'that green wave '
Played them boys and thought we didn’t give our best shot to them however I didn’t expect them to continue to get better throughout the year…2 championship games and won both they did their thing
@cam does it all, 2 championship games, what? Conference championship, what's the other championship?
@@mikereid4634 the cotton bowl is consider a championship game
ECU had a big season too bro don’t sleep on urself
Lincoln Riley has won ONE Bowl Game in his entire Head Coaching Career.
All around exciting bowl season. Love you Tulane!
Nice season Tulane and congratulations from a Kansas State fan.
I had to google Tulane to know where the heck they are at! Crazy game. Congrats to Green.
Duece Watts is a absolute DAWG for holding on that ball while getting KO. Play of the game if he fumbled that's game but that fact he holds on it AMAZING
Every single one of these bowl games have been such great football this one included …wow
Facts. Bowl season is always a treat.
Coach Riley has trouble winning big games. Riley had Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, and Jalen Hurts in succession at Oklahoma, and failed to win a natty. The Sooners were slobberknocked by Riley's departure, however, I think OU will be the better team long term.
At least he gets to go to big games.
@@therightway2130 haha! That's like saying , I can't afford a Porsche, but I can look at them!
@@beckyhenson6459 Only if you are dumb would you say that. There are 130 D1 colleges and universities eligible to compete for the NCAA National Championship and six elite "big games". That's 12 head coaches that get to go to "big games" and 118 head coaches that don't. To go to one of the "big games" is an accomplishment in itself which is why I said at least he gets to go to big games.
Tulane won me over, as my new favorite college FTB team. Sorry Virginia Tech. always knew Pratt was special... and Spears is electrifying!!! So proud of the Green Wave for pulling this one out over big bad USC!!!!
What a great win for Tulane. Fought back and showed strength.
Tulane RB is a beast!!
