Tulane senior signal caller Jake Retzlaff was under center for the 2026 Hula Bowl, held at the Bounce House in Orlando, Saturday afternoon. The Hula Bowl annually honors senior football players at NCAA institutions. The Green Wave leader was one of a half-dozen quarterbacks invited to this year's post-season contest. Others among them, were Southern Miss QB Braylon Braxton, Virginia Tech leader Kyron Drones, and Blake Shapen out of Mississippi State.

After the game, ON SI Central Florida publisher Bryson Turner was able to catch up with Retzlaff to get his take on how he did and what his performance may have done for his NFL chances.

Bryson also has a UCF YouTube channel where you can access other interviews that he was able to corral after the game. You can see those here.

Our thanks to Bryson for hunting down down the Tulane quarterback and getting the video to us. We've already promised Bryson a Parkway Bakery poboy next time he's in town.
