Tulane University issued a statement Sunday describing its 60-10 defeat to Tulsa as "unacceptable" after the Green Wave suffered one of the most lopsided losses in recent program history. The blowout, which took place on Saturday, saw Tulsa dominate across all phases of the game, leaving Tulane searching for answers heading into the latter portion of the 2026 college football season.
The statement, released through the athletic department, did not specify any immediate coaching or personnel changes but emphasized accountability and the need for immediate improvement. Tulane, which entered the matchup with postseason aspirations, now faces a critical stretch to salvage its campaign.
Tulsa's offense put up 60 points while holding the Green Wave to just 10, marking the largest margin of defeat for Tulane since the 2021 season. The Golden Hurricane improved their conference standing with the victory, while Tulane drops further back in the divisional race.
