    I do disagree with your claim that ULM would beat Louisiana Tech this year. Despite the yardage and points Tech's defense has given up this year, they are one of the top teams in the nation in turnover margin and doing a better job in shutting down their opponents' offenses.

    While Louisiana Tech defeated New Mexico State last Saturday, it was the worst overall performance of the year so far. There were a few standouts such as Ryan Allen, Ray Holley, Myles White, and the defense (for the first 50 minutes of the game), but the team had a flat performance overall.

    Even though I disagree with you placing ULM one spot above Louisiana Tech this week, I do appreciate your vote for Tech in the Harris Poll. Thanks.
    Only one way to know. Ya'll are 30 minutes away, you should be on each other's schedule often. Till you guys man up and play them, you leave it up to humans to decide.

    If Tech were in Sun Belt, we would be playing often but we're not.....would it benefit Tech nationally to schedule ULM ( a team that not too many people recognize outside LA) No!!!!! Could ULM beat Tech? Sure...

    Tech earned their vote from me. In my opinion, so did ULM. Keep winning. You'll move up......

    More people in your stadium would benefit Tech.

    Same way scheduling Southern, or McNeese benefits the Cajuns.

    That's why moving to USA is good for us. We'll actually have a larger (?) contingent of visiting fans...more regional interest. Currently, our closest opponent is NMST! I dont think playing McNeese, Southern is good for y'all either.

    Why would UL care one way or the other if we play ULM?

    You can talk about the attendance with a full stadium, but we'd have to take the tarps down. And you guys love talking about those tarps!

    But really, why would UL care about anything that would benefit Tech? For slamming ULM so much on here, you guys sure seem to have jumped into their boat this time around. C'mon! Don't let your guard down. Remember your heated battle with the name issue, their attendance, the chickenhoax, Moanroe? They're going to start thinking you really care about them.

    NORMALLY, I would agree with you. But ULM has had enough good press beating Arkansas and playing two other bigger programs close, that I think people outside Louisiana would watch. Couple that with the impressive year Tech is having and I think it would get good ratings.

    We care because you and other Lousiana Tech fans say no way ULM would beat you guys.

    Well, no one will ever know because y'all refuse to play them.
