We want to improve our standing and get better bowl opportunities, we need to start getting W's against the Arkansas's and K-State's on our schedules on a regular basis. An OUTRIGHT conference title or two would be nice too. And getting out of the "perceived" worst conference in the country wouldn't hurt either. Boise St., TCU, Fresno, etc. didn't get where they are over night. I, myself, am thrilled to be playing in ANY bowl game given our previous 40 year drought.
As a side note, I just spent the last week in Walt Disney World with my family. Not a day went by we didn't see someone in UL gear. We are moving in the right direction, but it takes time.
