Tulane's football coach tells Katrina where to stick it

WE’LL PLAY IN A POPEYE’S PARKING LOT

Tulane’s football program is running on duck tape and happy thoughts right now. Chris Scelfo, their coach, has adopted a damn-the-torpedoes attitude toward Katrina’s drastic effect on their season:

“I’ll play in the parking lot of a Popeye’s Fried Chicken and so will my team,” Scelfo said.”

Scelfo has slept nine hours since August 28th. Tulane will play out their season in Ruston, Lousiana at Lousiana Tech’s facilities. La. Tech, scheduled to play Florida this weekend, hasn’t exactly been unaffected by Katrina, either.
