NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Tulane athletic director Troy Dannen says he is taking calls from bowl game representatives and is looking forward to a near-capacity crowd when Memphis visits the 25th-ranked Green Wave on Saturday. That’s a stark change from one year ago when Tulane was laboring through a 2-10 season. Such a turnaround could be held up as a lesson across college sports. Tulane has the same head coach and largely the same players as last season. But the Green Wave has opened this season 6-1. That earned them their first AP Top 25 ranking since they went 12-0 in 1998.
