Oklahoma football team makes Tulane feel at home after Hurricane Ida

Tulane entered Norman, Oklahoma, on Saturday looking to compete against the then-No. 3 ranked Sooners.

When the Tulane team arrived, players, coaches and staff received more than just a game. Support and love from the entire Sooners community greeted the Green Wave.

It had been a tough week for Tulane in the wake of Hurricane Ida. The team relocated to Birmingham, Alabama, where it practiced at the University of Alabama’s facilities and at historic Legion Field. And the school’s home game against Oklahoma turned into a road trip.

CLOSE CALL: Sooners survive Tulane's late surge in 40-35 victory

But Oklahoma quickly made Tulane feel right at home for the season-opening matchup.
