As a matter of fact, it does the opposite. That's like football scheduling 4 non-conference FCS teams, going 4-0 in those games, and then bragging about finishing 8-4. Well, you still went 4-4 in conference in most likely would finish in the middle of the pack. People see through that kind of stuff.

    Start beating the Auburn's, Florida State's, and TCU's more often. Yes, I know there are road games. But that will definitely generate more fan interest and get more people on board.
    But, but didn't they tie or beat Alabama in a pre season scrimmage and they only lost to the national championship Baylor by 30.

    Well there's that, but what really brought th DP was not turning in the defense to the NCAA.

    Portions of the defense were instead handed over to Ron Gomez (years later) to write a book.

    AND BRAGGED ABOUT IT ON TWITTER. I forgot which coach it was, but he talked about how we were one of three teams that scored 80+ on Baylor after they won the National Title........we lost by 30. That was a first for me.

    I had forgotten about that lol.

    It appears we scored the 80+ before they won the national title. And it looks like it was the only time they allowed 80+ in a regular season non overtime game

    This whole thread is amusing. It will get topped in four years when Marlin walks out to a retirement celebration and nobody on the radar is the new coach.

    Going on memory here. Tennessee tried to give us the game last March. We just happened to play worse. I remember hearing the announcers say something to the effect of "we don't really know what kind of offense the Cajuns are running." We lost by 3. We missed a chance to play in the round of 32. We missed on beating a P5 on the big stage. We missed the opportunity to play Duke in front of a national audience. We missed an opportunity to beat Duke who played pretty terrible against Tennessee and lost. As a mid-major, we need to be prepared for that door opening just a crack and busting through it. Based on prior history, we won't see that for at least 4 more years.
