Bowling opponents

[Jacob81]

Yes 8:15 I think. But on a Saturday night. Cold be colder than the last Indy bowl.

All of Louisiana's home games were at 8pm in the 40's and 50's.

It gave farmers a chance to finish work and still have time to go have some fun.

I know it's too early to be thinking about what bowl we will be going to, but I was thinking about who our opponent will be. I saw a few weeks ago that we had the potential to match up against Mich. St. Now that would be fun, but I think it would be more interesting if our opponent would be either TSAB or Florida.

Either of those opponents would cause RP to blow up. No way would TSAB allow this to happen. They would probably decline to play in the bowl. But a Des/Napier match up would be crazy.

Thoughts?

I assume TSAB stands for LSU somehow? Can someone explain?

We were at the Indy Bowl 2 yrs ago. It was 14 degrees when we got off the bus. Miserable!!! Just don’t think it could happen again.

30ish degrees after dark would be possibly colder. I’ll be there if the Cajuns are….

It is criminal to put the Indy bowl in the frozen northern tundra city of Shreveport at night !

[ZoomZoom]

The laziest “pick” I see out there is NOLA and Jacksonville State. Rematch from last year won’t inspire a crowd.

The SBC Bowl lineup is pathetic. Listening to ESPN on Serius radio and they only talk about the MWC and AAC. The SBC, MAC and CUSA are all lumped into another G5 category. If UL goes 11-2 as SBC conference champs and are close to or attain a Top 25 ranking AND get relegated to a bowl playing a mid-level CUSA school, that will kill any momentum gained this year. People just cannot get enthusiastic about the SBC and its conference members and schedule.

[UL_Cajuns]

Even though the SBC is truly a top 5 football FBS conference, we will never garner respect in the polls or media with this putrid bowl tie in line up. It just doesn't move the needle.

However, it sure beats having one bowl tie in like when SBC was first created, but we are leaps and bounds above those days now.

Bowls starting to fall in place. Cant wait to watch this one
