Man I've thought about something like that before (red turf) it's just so nauseating.

Well I guess I'm the first to say it here, but I proud of my team. They played hard, me and my friends tried to do our part (yelling at UNT). Well now we have that dreaded goose egg off of our record. Let's see if we can pull some momentum from this. Geaux cajuns!
Finally! 5 and 1 seems bad but, we're only 1 and 1 in conference play.
To quote the philosopher PooPoo Broussard, "You gotta look on da side of life dat has the light on it."
Go Gators btw.
Well said and enough said....so it's year 6...get over it and support the team that is here and now!!! Congrats on the W, boys...make it 2 in Arkansas.Quote:

sunbelt going 4-3 v Conference USA last year
this year:
ark st. beating memphis
Middle Tenn hanging tough with Virginia and Louisville
FAU beating Minnesotta and hanging tough with South Florida
Troy hanging tough with UF and destroying Oklahoma St.
Cajuns hanging tough with South Carolina
Finally, the Cajuns are in a football conference that is not completely uncompetitive on the national scene. Seems like sunbelt will only get better because recruits will likely prefer to play in south than in northern schools, if they have choice between WAC, MAC, and Sunbelt teams, and they don't have ties to a particular area. Sunbelt is flat outplaying CUSA the past two years.
Troy blew out Rice last year. This year, Troy could blow out any team in the CUSA on a given day. Cajuns beat Houston last year, but were not even a top 2 sunbelt team.
The only way Cajuns are going to have a chance to become a Southern Miss type program over the next decade is a) have great coaching, and b) be in a conference that recruits can be excited about playing in.
When N. Texas was winning the sunbelt by default in its first several years, the sunbelt was just awful and no team in the sunbelt was well positioned for the future.
Now all the sunbelt teams have a better future, as long as the conference as a whole keeps showing this remarkable improvement. Just two years ago, the modest achievements listed above would have been unbelievable and unnatainable.
I would rather the Cajuns struggle a bit in a much improved sunbelt than win the conference by default, as N. Texas was doing.
This Cajuns team is probably as good as those champion N. Texas teams, but the problem is the sunbelt is a lot better. That is a good problem...
Yes, it sucks to be 1-5, but it is better to know that there are no easy games left on the sunbelt schedule than to think that Cajuns can likely roll to a .500 record now that sunbelt play has started...
off the subject, but what did the attendance look like tonight? I am in Hong Kong and could not even listen to the game. I bet on the game though and nice to see that the Cajuns covered late ;-)
