It's Thanksgiving week, so add that recipe together and bake for 60 minutes and that's a loss to a bad football team in the Panthers.
Tx St openee up as 1pt favorites on the road. Lets hope vegas is right on this one.
. . . Vegas is almost alway right . . . issue is it has almost nothing to do with the final score . . . . money equalization is their sole goal . . .
It's a very important game in Monroe regardless what Texas State does.
Yeah, you right!!! .~..~..~.Quote:

While it doesn’t mean much, really just perception. The sunbelt east has always seemed to feel they were better in football than the west. The record showed as much for a few years. But last year the west was better by one game after Troy won the championship. This year the west is 25-24 East is 24-25 in conference. Only 2 games left between East and west. Arkansas state vs odu this weekend and the championship. If odu beats Arkansas state it will be tied 25-25 and the championship will determine it again.
Good stuff.Quote:

I calculated the average of the 3 rankings (Anderson & Hester, Massey, Colley ) which SBC may use to determine..we are currently ranked 8 spots better than MarshallQuote:

Tulane vs Memphis is the only college game on thanksgiving. I’ll be watching for sure, or snoring.
Louisiana would OWN that day (nation wide) if they had only stuck to tradition.Quote:

It seems unlikely that the change after potential victories over JMU & ULM would make a large difference, but there is no easy way to tell.
It doesn't change anything. The sine qua non is winning Saturday.
(Some day ask me about when I was in the Navy, and was the guest aboard a teakwood yacht in Hong Kong harbor, named 'The Sinequan.')
Thanks, i couldnt find the wolf rankings...probably didnt look hard enoughQuote:

I think that by taking our current combined ranking, multiplying it times 11, adding in the ULM combined ranking, then dividing the total by 12 might do it??Quote:

Texas State, the last few years, has let the elephant in the room make or break their season…can’t beat UL. Their swagger dies with that loss each year.Quote:
