Need some facts to back up your supposition. Exactly what makes you believe that our bowl game last year had in any way less meaning than any single regular season game and in what respects?

I was in Orlando and to me it was the most meaningful game of the year. Only those who didn’t make an effort to attend would think it was not meaningful.

I was also there and would strongly disagree. All of the conference games, especially the championship game had more meaning to me. The game meant SO much that only about 2k people bothered to show up.

I have still not heard one iota of evidence or one person say, explain or give one fact why they would believe that for this university and its players that the 2018 bowl game in Orlando had any less meaning than any of the regular season games. I don’t think anyone can!!!!!!!!

I kinda agree that winning the bowl game wasn’t as important as winning the ULM game and getting to the conference championship. And if I had my choice of wins last season. I would have chosen the conference championship game over the bowl game. We wouldn’t have made the championship game without everyone of the conference games. I’d like to win conference championships especially now that there’s a game for it. It’s way bigger than any bowl we’re tied too. Imagine conf championship game at Cajun field this year. Gonna be epic.

Well it not fact it’s opinion. My opinion is any game that helps get us to the conference championship is important because that’s the goal. If we’re playing on national tv I want to hear the announcer saying “Defending conference champs” more than “ cure bowl winners”. There are bigger bowls if we were ever in could be bigger, but the current tie ins no.

Not sure what shred of evidence you are looking for. It's a subjective opinion for which you can not provide any more evidence than the person countering your point. The initial point made was that the sheer number of bowl games we have these days has watered down the quality of the postseason. Teams can get in with a 6-7 season or 6-6 season and even the lowest tiered conferences are getting 3+ teams into bowl games. You can be a mediocre team in a mediocre conference with a mediocre record and be invited to a bowl game when 20 years ago these games were a main goal of a team entering the season and many good teams with better records were not invited.

That is the point. There is NO evidence. Go play the bowl that you qualify for and enjoy it. Or sit your ___ in Lafayette in December and whine even more.

UL is selling discounted tickets to encourage increased attendance, but at least they are not giving tickets away! Apparently not all P5 schools are actually BIG TIME like they claim to be!

Maybe UL Attendance Isn't That Bad Afterall

Heard they moved the students 30 yards from the stadium that's why no one shows up

[GeauxLouisiana]

No, it's still bad after all.
