I just got on their BBB site and while reading some of their upset fans comments, the site shutdown. I think they turned it off!!!!
Count me amongst those looking forward to a LTU ULM matchup. Your guys gambled and lost big time. Our conference woes were due largely to things out of our control (although not all). LTU staying home is 1000% on the decision maker's shoulders. LTU did not put itself in a position to get much sympathy.
For our friends in Ruston.
Idiots
The Techies are taking plenty of heat. I love the spin control by some fans.

Bluedog,
Most of the Tech posters on here are respectful, yourself included, and I appreciate that.
In 2008, La. Tech forcefully kept Louisiana from a bowl appearance. Tyrell Fenroy set NCAA records, and never got a chance to play in a bowl game. The I-Bowl staged N. Illinois vs. La. Tech, with Louisiana tax dollars propping up the debt-ridden bowl, instead of filling the seats with bowl-straving Cajuns fans.
This year, they tried to do the same, stiff-arming the I-Bowl by stating they weren't coming if the I-Bowl invited ULM. The I-Bowl did what was in the state and bowl's best interests instead of letting Tech dictate to them.
With all due respect, it's about time Tech realized who they are: a mid-major trying to find a solid place in the world... Just like ULM. Just like Louisiana.
Pride kept Tech out of that bowl game. And no blowout to ULM could've caused this much embarrassment to your university. Some of us are happy Tech finally found out, that they're not Big 12. Iowa St is. They're 6-6, and they're playing in the bowl you hoped for.
Because like us, you're "small time" trying to be "big time."
When you're ready to realize that, let's talk. Until then, it couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch of arrogant fools.
What a shame for those seniors, the whole team...coaches...parents who invested so much into their children....for the arrogance of big-headed fools to cost them everything they worked all season for. It says a lot about the folks running your athletic program. It should taste bitter. 2008 tasted bitter. It's your turn...that's all.
You reap what you sow.
"When I ready to realize what?!?" Like I said, thx for the middle finger boys. Classy
Makes sense. They should have kept their mouthes closed. LOL! I'd bet Benson was like "I got you now b***h!"
This is a really messed up situation. This was Techs best season since they went Division 1 in '89. As an Alum & fan I'm beyond ____ed that the decision makers could let this happen. I feel horrible for the players most of all.
I due find it interesting, to say the least that the Tech posters on RP were extremely sympathetic to your conference woes earlier this week...and now most of you are being truly classless back to us. Thx
