With so much time between announcement and the actualy game the smack talk would reach an unbearable level. It was bad the last time we played and there wan't almost a month to stew over it. Sheesh

There is some support from the Tech fans for this game. I do think it would be a fun game. Oh well waiting...

Best post of the thread so far:

They have a very mobile running QB that rushed for over 1000 yards. Utah St or Nevada anyone??????????????????????

honorable mention:

Just the generation of posts to a thread created 15 minutes ago tells me this would be one hell of a game.

Hahah! I like how they want a "national" TV audience. The ONLY people who watch bowl games outside of the post-New Years bowls are:

1. Fans of the teams in the games
2. Degenerate gamblers
3. People who would watch football no matter who is playing

To think otherwise is awfully high and mighty.

Further, anyone not playing at or above the level of a Fresno State is considered lower tier 1A. That includes most MAC, CUSA, WAC, and Sun Belt teams. To think that playing Sun Belt teams "lowers their standards" is laughable, because the national awareness of LA Tech is much lower than a Ball State, and probably on the same level as Troy.

"Wasn't trying to come across so nasty. The Louisiana does kind of sound dumb you have to admit. "

That is from a post from the tech board. A lot of them seem not only offended but confused by it. LOL. They are so sad, but if I lived in Ruston I would probably be sad too. (No offense dad). But honestly, when people around the country think of Louisiana, they think of Cajuns, good food, fun atmosphere, music, swamps, and friendly people. These are all things we have not only in Acadiana, but in Lafayette. So it therefore makes sense for us attempt to assert the term. And we are not worried about being the "flagship" of the Louisiana system, but academically we are leaders. And I guess tech is supposed to have a good engineering department, good for them. Our petroleum engineering department just won best student chapter in in the world, so I guess we aren't so bad ourselves. Basically, we have what others wish they had, so they try to run us over the coals on the few things we are lacking. Only where we are proficient, we don't try to hold others down, we cheer for our collegiate peers to be successful. It is sad there isn't more cooperation in this state. I guess I am just as confused by their inflated sense of self as they are of Louisiana.

HAHAHAHAHAHA they are trying to "distance" themselves from the Sunbelt? when did Neck become so entitled? When did the bible belters reach such football greatness that they don't want to lower themselves to the sunbelt. I mean I know we aren't the best college football team out there but come on. Am I supposed to be wow'd by a 4 point win over NMSt.? Or winning by a TD over the explosive Utah St.? And we are the ones accused of trying to be something we're not.

I can't wait until conference re-allignment and they end up in our conference. They claim to be so much better than the sunbelt. I'll put Troy, Ark St., or our squad this year against Neck any time, anywhere.

I mean, since they've won so many conference Championships.




sorry i've been holding that in for awhile.

Glad you got that off your chest.
