"Couldn't" - disagree. Not probable - agree. I think this team has the talent to run the table; but they have yet to learn how to close out a game. My guesstimate for the remainder of the season is that we will win 2-3 of the remaining games. I think MT will end up being the conference representative in the bowl game, and lastly, I believe NT will go 0-4 against the state of Louisiana this season.Originally Posted by weareLOUISIANA

Now, if we manage to beat MT I reserve the right to rethink my bowl rep.![]()

I want to add another goal that is within reach. 'A winning record at home' Bustle has never had a losing record at home and I don't expect this year to be an exception. Still as of right now it's only a goal, it has to happen on the field.

Man if we had that ASU game.
Well what has to happen first is that we win our last 4.
Then ASU will have to lose 2 more games, and ULM will have to lose at least one to set up the season finale for the sunbelt championship.
There is still hope, but that ASU Loss hurt us bad!
One game at a time, My prediction: is that we win 3 out of our last 4 go 5-6, which will still be a good turn around from a horrible beginning, and one more win from last year. Take it one year at a time.
If there is a three-way tie between UL, UL-Monroe, and ASU; everyone would have beaten someone else. I believe that the Sun Belt has the right to choose who they want to represent the league. I believe that if UL finishes in a tie they will get the bid for two reasons. 1. a strong finish 2. most important we will pack the stadium for a home bowl game.
A few notes.Originally Posted by J-Town Cajun
I believe we will run the table.
I believe A-State will lose @ North Texas or @Middle Tennessee.
I believe ULM will lose @ North Texas or @ Middle Tennessee.
We will finish in a tie for the SBC championship.
We will finish with a winning record for the first time since 1995.
We will go the New Orleans Bowl. If there is a tie, the league office will select the bowl representative. There are no tie-breakers to get selected.
If North Texas and ULM have 2 conference losses, they will both have 6 losses overall and will both be ineligible.
We would be selected. No question about it. All we have to do is take care of business.
So you think that UL would have the upper hand in case of a tie, because we could draw the largest crowd? Man that night in lafayette would be off the chain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could you imagine?????
Hopefully I survive that night??
Let me not get my hopes up too much though.
Geaux Louisiana!
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Maybe all that talk about winning five in a row wasn't just Cajun hyperbole.
"We still have a lot to play for," said redshirt freshman quarterback Michael Desormeaux. "Even if we didn't, our pride won't let us quit."
Pride was a word many of the University of Louisiana players were throwing around late Saturday evening, only minutes after the Ragin' Cajuns had a last-second game finally go their way.
A stout defensive effort for over three quarters and a clutch drive in the game's final five minutes provided a surprising 13-10 victory over Middle Tennessee and kept its still-flickering hopes for a Sun Belt Conference crown alive.
It was only a first step, and the mountain - four straight wins to close the season - is still plenty high for a 2-5 team. But Cajun coach Rickey Bustle said it was the only step that his team could afford to worry about.
