Thread: 2 Sunbelt teams in bowl games

  1. #1

    Default 2 Sunbelt teams in bowl games

    CFN.com thinks so. I don't know if I will believe it till it happens but I'm glad to see someone respecting the Belt enough to put 3 teams in.

    Troy vs. East Carolina - New Orleans Bowl
    UL vs. Hawaii - Hawaii Bowl
    Middle Tennessee vs. Central Florida - Motor City Bowl

    Now that would be nice! Does anyone know what type of out of conference wins Troy and Middle have under their belts...respectively?

    Troy has 1 OOC win against a 1aa

    If that is the case...wouldn't it be fair to say that our out of conference wins would make us a better at large bid to be considered for a bowl appearance? Or does it not matter....

    Whoa! That would be awesome! I know this is just "what if .." , but damn, getting 3 SBC schools to bowls (regardless of which ones) would be a tremendous accomplishment. BTW, I don't have a problem letting MT go to Detroit if we get to go to Hawai'i ! Hope this dream comes true. First, TCB with ULM! Can we still say "Scalp the Warhawks"? Maybe "Pluck the Warhawks" would be better! Either way, just win, baby!

    CFN is really confident that with a win we are going bowling. This comes from the CFN website...

    UL Lafayette … As bad as things looked a few weeks ago, it's stunning how things can quickly change. After beating Arkansas State with a nice mix of running from both Jerry Ball and Tyrell Fenroy, the Ragin' Cajuns can get to seven wins by beating UL Monroe next week and knock someone out of a bowl spot. As long as Fenroy, who's coming on like a league MVP, runs like he has the last few week, ULL will go somewhere for a 13th game.

    Don't know about Troy State of MTSU but the cajuns OOC wins are not that great with the exception being Houston. If I had to bet I'd say that MAYBE MTSU sneaks in to a bowl game at best. I cannot imagine any bowl game taking 3 teams from the sunbelt. It would be a neat trick but I seriously doubt it.

    I would rather Motor City over...

    a) Poinsettia just because we would perhaps play a weaker team than TCU, then again, they are all good at this point.

    b) Hawaii because I can afford a flight to Detroit. Hawaii is freaking expensive.

    either way, and i know nothing is in stone yet, I am proud of those guys for never giving up and putting them in a position for the second straight year of controlling their own destiny. Whether they make it to a bowl or not, seasons like this are what builds programs and provides stability in a program for the future. And, if they don't get an invite, I hope they feel sick (again this year, like last year) and remember that feeling next season.

    As nice as Diego is, Hawaii blows it away.

    I think the Cajuns hopes depend on MTSU accepting a Motor City or Poinsettia bid coupled with Troy losing to FIU.
