CFP Rankings and Bowl Announcements

[ZoomZoom]

Does not seem like much of a reward for a 12-1, conference champ and top 25 ranked team. We could have been 7-5 and gone to NO Bowl. I really don’t mind the NO Bowl, I was just expecting a better opponent.

There is one major goal available. If Cincinnati loses and we win, we start the season with the nation’s longest winning streak.

Bowl tie ins. They handcuff us.

So give us UAB or even Middle Tenn. At least they're closer and will travel. Either a good matchup record-wise or a good travel fanbase (close Proximity). Not a ______ sandwich...

Cajuns vs. Marshall in Nola. Confirmed.

Wha... ? Not knocking Marshall, but I thought the whole point of the bowls was to get matchups you don't get to see in the regular season. Marshall's going to be in 'Belt next year, dang it.

Or the next...

Up one in CFP. 23. Houston loses by 2 scores and moved up one. We moved up because SDSU LOST AND DROPPED 5.

Well, at least we’ll be on the mothership screen crawl 24/7 for the next few weeks.

Being on the ticker with a number next to your name is big.

We really got the shaft in terms of a matchup. I think the fact that New Orleans was always our destination hurt. App has some good teams and played CUSA in Nola and killed then.


App got a 8-5 WKU team in Bocca. Covid Carolina gets a MAC champion in the Cure Bowl. Georgia State gets a 6-6 Ball State team on Christmas. No thanks.

I know it’s about bowl tie ins, but UTSA - SDSU in the Frisco bowl is the type of matchup we needed.

Not sure why y’all are surprised at our matchup it’s been insinuated for weeks now and unless the Belt gets better tie ins this will likely be the case year after year. Hopefully that changes in the future and this was main point when people on here didn’t want to play LSU in a bowl game thinking we could do better……we can’t as it stands now….

That being said let’s go down their and kick Marshall’s ass, end the season ranked and with nations longest winning streak and continue to build!!

Coach Dez era begins now

First responder bowl Air Force and Louisville. That would have been good as we were there last year. SMU gets Virginia in the Fenway bowl. Would have loved to play on of those guys. But again, our tie ins stink.

[RaginScotsman]

UCF and Florida in the Gasparilla Bowl. That’s a good one.

[RaginScotsman]

North Carolina and South Carolina in the Mayo bowl.

[Turbine]

Cajuns vs. Marshall in Nola. Confirmed.

Any other year I would like this matchup.

An opponent Louisiana will be playing every other year going forward takes the luster off.

A few years ago Louisiana won the rights to the New Orleans Bowl but was allowed to go elsewhere.

A one else recall this?
