Tulane (37-13 all-time):

Starting off the list is a school that was just seen in the list of best winning percentages of all-time, the Tulane Green Wave.

All-time, Georgia Tech is a dominating 37-13 against Tulane, and winners of the last three meetings. Despite only meeting three times since 1982, the two teams have combined for 50 games against each other with a majority of those coming between 1943 and 1982.

Outside of a six-year winning streak by Tulane from 1929 to 1934 and a small three-year streak from 1979 to 1981, the series has been all Yellow Jackets. In fact, from 1943 to 1962, Tech won all but one meeting (1950), however the two teams did not face each other in 1951. The 14-year winning streak that would begin 1952, was the longest winning streak between the two programs.

The last meeting between the two programs came in 2015 of course on September 12th. The then 15th ranked Yellow Jackets absolutely dominated Tulane, winning 65-10. The Jackets ended up rushing for 439-yards on that September day as well as six touchdowns.

One last interesting fact to leave from the battles between these two programs is that the Jackets have shutout the Green Wave 10-times over the course of their 50 games.

The two programs are next expected to play each other anywhere in the near future.
