    After a horrible start, SBC ends up a mediocre 5-7 in bowl games. 4 of the 7 losses were 1 score losses, 2 of those being in OT.

    Nothing to get excited about as a conference, but better than I thought we would be after being 1-6 after our first 7 games of bowl season.

    Besides us, Troy's lost was most disappointing, they played like ____. Pretty shocking that that was the first time a Sunbelt school played a P5 school in a bowl game....

    What about JMU?

    Supposedly, the class of the SBC, and they get throttled by a service academy that runs that offense that shall not be named.

    Bowl games are the perfect time to have an offense no one ever confronts.

    They lose their effectiveness with conference members who face it every year.

    If we:
    1) have an undefeated season
    2) rank in the top 15
    2a) rank in the top 25
    3) win coach of the year
    4) win a bowl game
    5) win the west
    6) win the conference championship game
    7) have the highest Football GPA in conference
    8) Defeat a P4 school
    9) Lead conference in average attendance per home game
    10) ******* Add others I didn't think of*******

    In return for the incentives, if the team has an overall losing season (including the Bowl game in a 6-6 season making the overall record 6-7) the buyout becomes null and void.

    Not bad. How much would you be willing to pay his entire staff?

    Tough to evaluate bowl games with so many guys going into the portal. Coaching changes are also a factor. Troy and James Madison both had coaches leave prior to their bowl game.

    Current year bowl games are starting to resembe a preseason game for next year, minus the influx.

    This is the general consensus if you listen to a lot of satellite radio, which I do.

    With the exception of the playoff games, they definitely have a "Pro Bowl" feel to them.

    When an expanded playoff is in place for what remains of collegiate football, most of these will go away.
