2012 New Orleans Bowl

Yea its been a lot better for the last few mins

I have to disagree a little bit that winning on the field has nothing to do with you getting in a bigger conference. Do you not think that the Big East didn't notice Boise State winning. They are 112th TV market with a population of 262,290. Lafayette, LA 123 with 230,670. Now the other schools yes it is about TV market, but that is not the only criteria.

Then WHY did they just pick up TOOLAME!?!

Wait a minute.. Where did this Big 12 bs start? Lets look at history. We have beat 2 Big 12 teams (t a&m and k-state) that I recall. And both were in down years. We have never beat an sec, big 10, acc, PAC 12 school, again, that I recall. We play two money games a year and have a DOA record vs. the big boys.. The question keeps getting asked ,"what do we have to do to get noticed?" We'll, lets start by beating Arkansas and k-state next year. Start doing it regularly and we will get noticed just like Boise did. Else, we are where we are.. Would be much better to take the money games, win them, say "thank you very much for the check, move onto the next big boy victim and repeat. Then we get noticed and asked to join the party....

Actually, while K-State WAS in a down year, A&M was ranked #25 when we beat them and we had no business losing a game against one of the TOP SEC teams just a few weeks ago!!

Political Pressure from then Governor Ann Richards.

Ann Richards got Baylor in. [She is a Baylor alumna] Tech got in on their own.

What about getting t shirts made with this on it......

Can you put our new helmet that was worn in the game on this? Otherwise, it looks great.
