Thread: Bowl Opponent Possibilities

  1. #1

    Default Bowl Opponent Possibilities

    Who would you like to see us against if we win......or if we lose the SBC Championship.

    Win = New Orleans Bowl (CUSA Opponent)

    Middle Tennessee 8-4 Overall, playing in the CUSA Championship vs UAB. Probably not an option. Although would be a good matchup with two conference championship winners in the New Orleans Bowl.

    UAB 9-3, same as above. One of their only losses was to Coastal Carolina.

    Marshall 8-3 playing Va Tech this weekend, will finish either 8-4 or 9-3.

    UNT 9-3 overall.

    La Tech 7-5 overall, probably one of the more anticipated G-5 Bowl games locally.

    USM currently 6-5, another good matchup for attendence reasons.

    FIU currently 8-4 already accepted an invite to the Bahamas Bowl.


    Lose = Dollar General Bowl (MAC opponent)

    Buffalo 10-2, playing in the MAC Championship, probably not going to happen

    NIU 7-5, playing in the MAC Championship vs Buffalo, could be a decent matchup of 7-6 teams

    Miami (OH) 6-6 overall.

    Ohio 8-4 overall, I think we play them next year if I am not mistaken

    EMU 7-5 overall

    Toledo 7-5 overall, already accepted an invite to the Bahamas Bowl

    WMU 7-5 overall

    Marshall in nola would be a great matchup. Marshall has a winning tradition, fans travel well, name school..2nd choice is USM, Tech barely on Radar..If it's DGBowl, WMU.

    I thought that the NOLA bowl was a MWC opponent?

    Edit: never mind.

    UL fans will travel to destination like NOLA, but this list of teams does not excite for a Mobile trip for a lot of fans. I will be there.

    UL fans don't travel to Cajun Field... who are you kidding? NOLA Bowl might have 2nd thoughts if they take us and we only bring 9,000. We will right this ship. I believe winning cures all. I believe winning is in our near future. Be we are not a well supported team for a number of reasons at this point.

    Mobile would be the best option if we don't win this weekend. My wife and I will be staying at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi if we go, and I would expect a good number of Cajun fans staying in that area as well. It's an easy 4 hour drive on I-10.

    And for those so inclined, the Saints are at home on the Sunday versus the Steelers. Stop in at the dome on your way home. 3:25pm game, so you don't have to wake up early to get there.

    Even at the previous NO Bowls we were supported at the bowl game by probably 60% or 70% more than those seasons at CF. Get there and they will geaux.

    Yeah, I forgot it was a later kickoff. I might look into that.

    I sure don't feel good about La Tech. I'm still kind of snakebit about those guys.
