Players of the Week

Players of the week

Offense: Obviously, Matt Forte. With 40 carries for 303 yards and 5 TDs, he was the offense. No one else contributed and he carried the team single handedly to victory. He also set Tulane and Conference USA records. Career performance here

Defense: Antonio Harris. He had 11 tackles, 4 of them behind the line of scrimmaige, and also caused a fumble that led to a turnover. In general though the front seven played a great game. SE Louisiana tried many screen passes and none of them worked, they were constantly getting pressure on the quarterback and they also stuffed the run.

Special Teams: All of the kick returners. Ade Tuyo and Jordan Stephany both returned kicks for 47 yards, and another long kick return was called back because of a holding penalty
