FINAL:

Tulane 31  Louisiana-Monroe 14

The Green Wave's ground game won the affair on paper, but their defense gets the nod for honorable mention with a score of their own.

Half of ULM's point came via a punt return in the 3rd quarter by Rashon Ceaser, although Colton Browning moved into 1st place all time in the career passing mark for the Warhawks by adding 134 yards through the air.

Remaining C-USA FINALS for Week Five:

UAB 24  Vanderbilt 52

Southern Miss 7  Boise State 60
