    You asked " time frame for Mike to win?" CC went further than your question and predicted championship game in two years, he didn't exclude "winning" next year.

    It would be difficult for you more thoroughly misunderstand what I was saying.

    I’ll try again. The end of HUD’s time was a train wreck. Yet just a few years later we hit never before seen heights. Even as bad as HUD’s ending was it didn’t set us back 10 years or really at all. And neither would losing to anyone in the New Orleans bowl.

    As far as worse tenures you know we have other eras besides Baldwin where we lost MANY more games than we won, right? Baldwin may be the worst, but to suggest the CMD era is second worst just shows you really don’t know what you are talking about.

    If you guys don’t think losing to this team is detrimental to our brand y’all are nuts. It just reinforces the perception of the same ole Cajuns.

    We couldn’t even beat the teams we were supposed to this year. Didn’t 4 of our losses this year come as we were the clear favorite?

    We as fans have experienced terrible football for so long that when we excel it’s as if it was a fluke. So falling back to 6-6 is acceptable by the majority. Which in itself is pathetic.

    If you don’t believe that’s the case just read this thread, already making excuses for losing.

    We were beat in 2 games this year, Minnesota and stAte, we lost the rest.

    That’s why optimistic fans say we can be 10-2 next year. Because we could have been this year.

    Nowhere near? What would be mikes record if he won all the 1 score games? 20-5…seems pretty Close to me. We didn’t win them but when he figures out how, and I think he will, we will be back to playing in championships. Those Napier teams that did, were loaded with veterans on both side of the ball.

    Whup Em All said:New Orleans Bowl (Arkansas State vs. Jacksonville State) - Dec. 16 - 2:15 p.m. on ESPN

    As I said earlier, this is a bland matchup in my least favorite bowl location, but on the plus side, it gives the Gamecocks a tough but winnable game against a Sun Belt opponent. We need CUSA teams to win every bowl, but ESPECIALLY against the Sun Belt, since they're the only ones whose heads provide us a place to live rent free. Jax State just needs to do its part and take care of the Red Wolves.

    Well, it's pretty much confirmed now that we will, in fact, be in the New Orleans Bowl, but against the Ragin' Cajuns of Louisiana rather than Arky State.

    My original review of this game is mostly still true... but that first sentence is a little different. Take out "bland" and replace it with "solid" or "intriguing" or even "spicy".

    LA-La has been really good the past few years. But after a coaching change and a wave of transfers (both in and out) the Cajuns are a shadow of their former selves. They barely qualified for a bowl with a 6-6 overall record, and their 3-5 conference record was only good enough for 5th in the weak SBC West.

    The Ragin' Cajuns scored a respectable 387 points on offense, but allowed 338 on defense. One of their wins was over FCS NW State. One of their losses was to Minnesota of the Big Ten. They looked pretty good against UAB, Buffalo, USA, and ULM, but and really only looked terrible against Ark State. They were solidly in pretty much every other game.

    They like to throw the ball, with a 221.8 yards-per-game average through the air against 183.5 ypg rushing. However, the injury bug has hit their QB room hard. They had a dangerous starting QB, Zeon Chriss (1222 yards and 11 TDs passing with 5 INTs; 492 yards and 6 TDs rushing), but he broke his fibula against Arkansas State on Nov 4, and is lost for the season. Ben Wooldridge was also capable at QB (508 yards. 5 TDs, 1 INT), but he's lost for the season as well.

    In their absence, Chandler Fields has proven to be a capable starter with 914 yards and 7 TDs against 3 INTs. If Fields comes out, they'll have to turn to freshman D'Wayne Winfield, who saw only limited action against ULM.

    The Cajuns have allowed a bunch of sacks, with 22 spread among the three quarterbacks. This bodes well for the hungry Gamecock D.

    Rushing, they're led by Jacob Kibodi's 729 yards and 7 TDs. QB Chriss has added an additional 492 yards and 6 TDs on the ground.

    They are not led by a single dominant receiver, spreading it around quite a bit. Five receivers are over 300 yards for the season, with only one over 470 yards.

    We don't want to keep it close enough for the kicker to be a factor. Not only will we be missing AK47, but LA-La's Kenneth Almendares is 13-14 on field goals and 46-47 on extra points. He's not a long range guy, but he's deadly inside 40 yards.

    Defensively, linebacker K.C. Ossai leads the team with 70 total tackles. Safety Tyrone Lewis Jr. adds 66 tackles and leads the team in INTs with 3. Linebacker Kendre' Gant adds another 65 tackles to go with 6 sacks. D-lineman Jordan Lawson leads the team in sacks with 7.

    Bottom line?

    This won't be an "easy" game by any means, but it's a great matchup for the Gamecocks, and a great chance to earn a win for CUSA over the Sun Belt. LA-La will have at least a slight home-field advantage, with the game in New Orleans, but many Cajun fans are saying they're not expecting a huge crowd. If the Gamecock nation turns up in decent numbers, we could at least take the crowd out as a factor in the game.

    One thing's certain: Even a potentially depleted Marching Southerners will blow the Pride of Acadiana out of the Superdome. They've got decent size (200+) but don't have the sound to match Jax State.

    If Jax State plays like it's capable of playing, we could win this one by 20. If we play like we did in the first half against NMSU, it could be a long afternoon. We'll see who shows up.

    Oh... one more thing... if nothing else, our opponent's tailgating offerings should be VASTLY improved. Lafayette's food is so much better than New Orleans, and I'm not even going to bother comparing Arkansas to either.

    Evidently they have a good band called the “Southerners”.
