Re: Worst Case: UL vs. Tech in the NOLA Bowl.
I have not bought my tickets yet.....I'm the ultimate pessimistic fan.. when they do get the bid I'll jump on them tickets ...:)
Re: Worst Case: UL vs. Tech in the NOLA Bowl.
Tech will end up in San Diego and we will likely end up playing a MAC team. Although still early to predict as the MAC will have 7 if not 8 teams bowl eligible but it likely be one of the following teams: Temple or Toledo.

Considering the opponent they selected that year, evidently not.

The bigger question in all of this becomes who will we play. NO is scheduled to take the #5 team from CUSA, but with Boise losing and Houston still undefeated, there is a good chance that Houston ends up in a BCS bowl which would mean that NO would Essentially be taking the #6 seed from CUSA. Right now, CUSA has 4 bowl eligible team, they have 3 teams a 4-6 and 1 team at 5-5 and one of those 4-6 teams will fall to 4-7 this weekend as ECU and UCF play each other. They would need a lot of things to go right to have 6 eligible teams, so New Orleans may be in the mix for an atlarge team. Best Case Scenario is if we can nab a team from one of the AQ conferences that misses a slot, that would be really awesome. More likely though, we may end up playing one of the bowl eligible MAC teams. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Rivals.com has the Cajuns vs. Marshall in their bowl projection.

Between Boomer's dashes and Snote's dots, it would look something like Morse code I would think.

I doubt we see USM in the NO Bowl. I think you see them in the Liberty as that is where the CUSA
champ goes. This is likely if either they or Houston win the CUSA championship game. If Houston wins they will likely be in a BCS bowl leaving USM to fill the Liberty slot. If USM wins they are CUSA champs and go to the Liberty. SMU may bring a good crowd as flights from Dallas to New Orleans are plentiful and reasonably priced.

I was just thinking that I followed snote's post and I've followed most of Boomer's post pretty well all week. Think I'll go ahead and schedule that checkup my wife has been bugging me about.
However if anyone is looking at the long term effects of concussions from playing football I think they should talk to both of these guys. :)

This sure would be a good way to show who travels well though!
