This is the year we turn the table and start winning the close 1 point games. I really only think we will loose to KState. Just imagine the confidence builder we're going to have after beating LA Tech in week 2. We'll be a force for the rest of the season.

Its all about confidence and momentum. I really think 7-4, maybe 8-3 is realistic; but it could go either way depending on a few games early on. Got to start with a W in game 1! LaTech is a possible W; but we'll need to be sharp. Agree with most that K-State is the only "absolute" L. We've played NT tough recently, so a break here and there could put us over the hump. Troy State will be tough too.

Attendance. With a good start and nice weather no reason we can't average over 20,000!

Nice one Turbine!

I still think you guys are in La-La-Land though!
Remember that Tech put a major whoopin on us last year, and the games we did win (and lose) in the Belt could have gone either way. Just because we came in second place doesn't mean that we blew anyone out. Every Sun Belt game will be close. Based on what I saw last year I would put us as the #3 team in the Sun Belt behind UNT and Troy State.

But to all you la-la's out there I hope you are right!

Here ya go!

Northwestern St. (H) I believe they are picked to win the Southland. Tough game with the Demons!
WIN 27 - 23. 1-0

Louisiana Tech (A) Their first game of the season. We have the advantage with one game under our belt. With a new QB and a suspect run defense...
WIN 30 - 20. 2-0 SBC 1-0

Kansas State (A) We compete for 3 quarters but get worn down in the 4th.
LOSE 42 - 21. 2-1 SBC 1-0

Middle Tennessee (H) This will be another shootout with the team with the ball last winning...I think it will be us with a SC fg
WIN 34 - 31. 3-1 SBC 2-0

Florida International (A) We will be flat for this game. The Panthers will make it very interesting!!!
WIN 30 - 28. 4-1 SBC 2-0

New Mexico State (A) Aggies are prepared and get another game-winning FG.
LOSE 27-24. 4-2 SBC 2-1

Idaho (A) Vandals don't have the talent to match up.
WIN 42 - 20. 5-2 SBC 3-1

Arkansas State (H) I assume this will be homecoming for the Cajuns. And it will be pleasant!
WIN 38 - 24. 6-2 SBC 4-1

North Texas (H) This game will be to decide 1st place. Their defense will not be as effective as in years' past. Our boys finally prevail!
WIN 31 - 27. 7-2 SBC 5-1

Troy State (H) Last home game...Senior Day...Too many distractions and this is a good team!
LOSE 27 - 20. 7-3 SBC 5-2

Louisiana Monroe (A) Must win game for tie-breaker advantage. Typical battle with the Cajuns finally coming out on top!
WIN 28 - 24. 8-3 SBC 6-2 2004 CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!

Hummmm.......What makes us better this coming year???

Talented Quarterback with experience & good JC back-up....

Bigger and deeper Offensive line.....

More experience at running back......

Solid Defense.....

Excellent wide recievers, (will miss Stamps though).....

Better Team....Weaker Schedule

9-2 New Orleans Bowl Bank on it!!
