and with that we have a consistently ranked Louisiana Football program.
We finished 15 last year and 16 this year.

Let's keep this train rolling!

I just can't believe they didn't bump us up to #10/11. Shocked, just shocked.

Exactly as I suspected. I am very happy with being in the Top 25. I know some people here thought we were going to be higher, but at the end of the day, back to back Top 25 seasons.

Geaux Cajuns!!!!!!!!!!!

It is still insane to me that a team can finish in the top 25 of this sport consistently and win conference championships with a zero chance of ever making the playoffs.

The ranking didn't budge?

This tells me they are projecting instead of analyzing.

The stasis is evidently based on change of HC and portaletting of high profile transfers.

What they are saying is Louisiana isn't as good as its record, when I actuality the transfer offer destinations are saying Louisiana is better than its record.

Reminds me of the writer who said wouldn't vote for Aaron Rogers as MVP because of how he handled the vaccine issue.

Lots of clouded judgment in these matters.

I am predicting, we will not be ranked pre season top 25, but its not how you start, its how you finish just like this year.

With Cinci making it, you eliminated the argument that a G5 can’t make the playoff. So I wouldn’t say there’s zero chance. However, it also showed us how much of an uphill climb it is and how important it is for everything to fall in place perfectly so the committee can’t keep you out. Could the Cajuns replicate that? Never say never, but it would be a harder road than Cincinnati just took. Which means close to zero, but not quite.
