Jaguars suffer 2nd straight loss in New Orleans
Sep. 02, 2023, 10:14 p.m.
The performance by South Alabama was eerily reminiscent of last December’s New Orleans Bowl, when Western Kentucky’s Austin Reed threw for 497 yards and four touchdowns in a 44-23 victory at the nearby Caesar’s Superdome. As in that game, the Jaguars got little pressure on the opposing quarterback on Saturday, leaving receivers running uncontested in the secondary.
Pratt’s third touchdown pass — again at the end of a 2-play drive — put Tulane up 24-7. South Alabama converted a strip sack by Khalil Jacobs into points late in the half, with Diego Guajardo hitting a 36-yard field goal to cut Tulane’s lead to 14. Ambrosio added field goals of 30 and 26 yards in the fourth quarter to put the Green Wave up 37-17. Tulane got the ball inside the 5 in the final two minutes, but kneeled out the clock rather than try to score again.
