    The #CFBPlayoff hits this weekend and no one is giving #Tulane much of a chance in a re-match against #OleMiss — will they pull the upset?

  9. 🏛️🪦 A #Tulane anthropologist discovered a #Latin-inscribed stone in their #NewOrleans backyard that experts identified as a 1,900-year-old #Roman gravestone for sailor Sextus Congenius Verus. The artifact matches #museum records from #Civitavecchia, #Italy, where it was likely lost during World War II bombing.
