DALLAS - Saturday's Tulane-SMU football game, moved up to a 1 p.m. kickoff to avoid the winds and rains of Hurricane Rita, will be heard on an eight-station network throughout Louisiana beginning with the pregame show at 12:30 p.m. (Central). Larry Matson and Todd Graffagnini will call the action from SMU's Gerald Ford Stadium.
The game, Tulane's second of the 2005 football season, will be broadcast by WJSH-FM 104.7 in Hammond and on the North Shore, the closest outlet to New Orleans.

Tulane flagship station WTIX-AM 690 has not yet returned to the air.
