    I agree. Every time I hear someone say that we don't want CUSA because its no better or worse than the SBC, I think of these little issues. Perception says otherwise.

    Even though he's a douche, I'd rather be playing the real Miami versus the one we're playing. The matchup is not even comparable.

    If they look at the two conferences this year, CUSA is better from top to bottom outside of App St and UL. The power rankings will differ from year to year, but the bowl tie-ends are better overall. Anyone that doesn't see that now is just stupid and you can't change stupid.

    TCU was in MWC that year I believe their last out of a P5 conference.

    much, much better, and they get a brand to play against. no comparison at all.

    Ultimately the only bowls that matter are the ones for the final four teams. The rest are exhibition games one and all. The difference being the money.

    so during bcs years only one bowl mattered? and back in the polls era, the champ almost always came from the rose/sugar/cotton/orange majors [can only think of a couple exceptions]. the vast majority have always been "exhibition" games if championship-determining relevance is the standard.

    Oh I wasn’t insinuating that our bowl was better. Just wanted to point out that Shreveport as a city isn’t a better a destination than Mobile and LATURD will get stomped by the Hurricanes.

    Shreveport is not worse, I would argue that. Over the years, LSU, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Miami have all played in Shreveport for the Indy bowl. Don't see Mobile getting those types of teams.

    It is pretty naive to believe that bowls do not matter to teams similarly situated as Louisiana. We only get so many opportunities to earn style points and a favorable national perception. Hell yes they matter.

    At least La Tech gets the opportunity against a P5, I would rather play any P5 anywhere than play Miami Ohio in Mobile. Word is in 2026 there will be big time realignment in Conferences, we better not miss the boat.
