The model knows Tulane is first in the conference in scoring with an average of 39.1 points and has been held to 27 or fewer in just three of 12 games this season. The Green Wave leads the AAC in total offense (429.3 yards) and is third in rushing (312.5), thanks in large part to sophomore running back Makhi Hughes. He leads the Green Wave with 1,306 yards rushing and has scored 15 touchdowns. His 153 yards rushing at Charlotte was his seventh game this season with 100 or more on the ground. He has now run for 100 or more yards in 14 games in his Tulane career to rank fourth all-time on the school's list.
The model also has taken into account that the Black Knights lead the conference in rushing (312.5) and are fourth in scoring at 32.7 points per game. Army has maintained a spot in the AP Top 25 for eight consecutive weeks, the longest stretch since being ranked each week of the 1958 season. Senior quarterback Bryson Daily's 25 rushing touchdowns are second most in the country, only four behind Boise State's Ashton Jeanty (28). He scored his 25th rushing touchdown of the season in Saturday's win over UTSA. Since 1956, only 31 players in FBS college football have totaled 25 or more rushing scores in a single season. With one more rushing score, Daily will have the most rushing touchdowns in AAC single-season history.
