2022 Tulane Green Wave football team

The 2022 Tulane Green Wave football team represented Tulane University in the 2022 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Green Wave played their home games at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans, Louisiana, and competed in the American Athletic Conference (The American). They were led by seventh-year head coach Willie Fritz. They finished the season 12–2, 7–1 in AAC play to earn a trip to the AAC championship game. The Green Wave defeated UCF to win the AAC championship, the school's first conference championship since 1998 and its first AAC championship. They received a bid to the Cotton Bowl Classic to play No-10 ranked USC.[1] It was their first major bowl game since the 1940 Sugar Bowl. Tulane defeated USC in the Cotton Bowl 46–45, scoring 16 points in the final four minutes to win the game.[2] In the game, with 4:30 remaining and the team facing a 15-point deficit, Tulane's win probability stood at a measly 0.2%, yet the Green Wave pulled off the incredible comeback.[3]

Rankings from AP Poll

Following a 45–31 win against South Florida, Tulane was ranked in the AP Poll for the first time since 1998. It was also the fastest Tulane has ever clinched bowl eligibility in school history at October 15.[4] November 12's home game against UCF was the first Tulane home game between two ranked opponents since 1949.[5] For the first time since 1984, Tulane beat an opponent ranked in the AP top 25, although Tulane did beat Army in 2019 when they were ranked No. 25 in the Coaches Poll. The ten-win turnaround from two wins in 2021 to twelve in 2022 is the best in NCAA history. The Green Wave were ranked 9th in the final AP Poll, the highest ranking of the Green Wave since 1998.[6]
