SBC 2023 cross division football games

[Cajun Soldier]

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!

SBC conference schedule is not going to excite our fan base. Never has although having USM and Marshall join is a plus. I look forward to the Ark St game and if we played latech out of conference every year would peak fan interest. Takes two to tango. Otherwise our schedule in SBC will continue being blah most every year. Like the idea of earlier suggestion for having one set cross division rival. If not App, then Coastal or Marshall would build up more rivalry hate over time. Still seems there’s little hope for inspiring schedule change in the future.

Fair enough.

Let’s all remember that we were saying the same thing last year, more so about how easy the schedule was, and it turned out to be very difficult.

Outside of EMU everyone was as advertised

[CajunVic]

Don’t remember seeing advertisements . . .

I was discussing reasons for the poor attendance in another thread, and I forgot this crap right here.

Midweek games are attendance destroyers.

Life in the Sunbelt.

Wonder who else on their schedule got cut, and try to make a game with them.

Easy to overlook, they resemble preseason rankings.
