SBC 2023 cross division football games

[CajunEXPRESS]

Again, I don't care who we play, I will be at every home game I can make no matter who the opponent is. Do you guys really think that any team that gets 25K plus into their stadiums does because of their opponents. Those teams would get 25K plus whether they played the Lighthouse for the blind or Alabama every week. We need to be the same.

Well said. I’m sure that there’s only a couple teams in the SBC that move the needle at all.

Now depending on the relative circumstances of UL and the opponent can move the needle somewhat.

The teams that will move the needle for home games are USM, USA and Troy (when they are winning). Those teams have the possibility of bringing their fans and if UL is good and they are good bringing in the casual UL fan. In the East App and Georgia Southern, possibly Coastal, JMU and Marshall can travel decent.

Terrible schedule and we wonder why fans aren't excited about football.

The SBC office did us zero favors with the eastern teams. Coastal, App, or Marshall at home would have been so much better.

Why should the SBC cater to our needs. There’s 14 teams that have preferences. I thought GS was a good game from the East because we have a longer history with them. Yes we absolutely could have gotten better.

Next year wins will be GS, Texas St, Arkansas State, Nw State, ODU, NMSU, ULM.

Tough games will be USA, Troy, UAB and USM

Real tough games will be Minnesota

7-5 should be the minimum, 12-0 is the maximum.

Should that be TXST???

Should that be TXST???

Yes. Done and fixed.

I think that ULM, ASU are both going to be improved. ASU will have its second year in a row with the highest rated recruiting class. TxSt might be anything. They had talent and a new coach. They may have lost a lot of players through the transfer portal.

Remember we had Troy(Conference Champs) and USA(10 win team) and still didn’t draw much at home. Two good teams in 2022 and we failed to draw big crowds. Why is it that d
My crew and I drive a little over an hour from Avoyelles Parish and Lafayette refuses to support a D1 team in their back yard ? It boggles my mind. Wish we had something closer to where we live like that, but even an hour is very close to support my Cajuns! We need to breed more fanatics I guess ????

I hate to say it, but we sucked, people are mad at the coaching hire and we had two QBs which means we had none.

The SBC needs to do what the SEC has done with 2 Divisions. Have a designated rival program to play from the East Division yearly rotating home and home. And the second game outside of our Division would rotate all other members of the Eastern Division. Our designated rival could be App. State, feed off the heated competition and help your conference members grow attendance and television game of the week in the SBC.

I agree 100%, T!
