PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

[Turbine]

"senSITtivity" a word about good seats.

[CajunRed]

The seat is not important, I just want to go to the game. The reason I asked about the other team's allotment is because money is tight at the moment. When I do have the money for it, I want to make sure that I can get a decent seat, even if its on the other team's side.

You people need to get the hell over your sensitivity.

Your support is appreciated. Let's all enjoy the moment.

Sweet! So with my RCAF membership and my preorder I should be on or close to the 50! Wish I could get more than 8 though! Thanks for the info!

Yeah I got 8 yesterday too. But now when you go you can order up to like 50. I'm gonna call the ticket office in the morning to see if I can add some so that we are all staying in the same area. I think right now I'm up to 20 or so people just in our group.

While I want to go to the New Orleans Bowl as badly as everyone else and I would much rather spend a weekend in New Orleans than anywhere else for a bowl game, I find it interesting that while looking at multiple bowl projections there are differeing opinions as to which bowl we will be attending on the bowl projection sites. A couple even have us at bowls other than New Orleans or Go Daddy. I'm not really sure what these sites use to predict the bowl standings but it is interesting to see the different opinions that are out there.

(MAC vs. Sun Belt) Toledo vs. Louisiana-Lafayette Toledo vs. Louisiana-Lafayette


BBVA Compass Jan. 7 Birmingham, Ala. 1 p.m. SEC No. 8/9 vs. Big East No. 5/C-USA La.-Lafayette* vs. Cincinnati

GoDaddy.com Bowl
January 8, 2012 Mobile, AL 9:00 pm ESPN
Payout: $1.5 million
MAC No. 2 vs. Sun Belt
Projection: Temple vs. UL Lafayette


Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl, December 30, 2011 San Francisco, CA - 3:40 pm ESPN
Payout: $1.675 million - Pac-12 No. 6 vs. Army (WAC if Army not available)
Projection: Louisiana-Lafayette vs. Eastern Michigan

this paints a fairly murky future on the bowl game. The only thing that all the sites did have was UL projected to a bowl and that alone is a good feeling

if i had to guess these people have no idea how sunbelt tie ins work and probably dont know that the NO bowl has first choice of sunbelt bowl eligible teams.

You do realize that the people who make these projections don't have a clue how sun belt bowl tie-ins work and they are just randomly guessing?

Interesting that they project Texas Tech to go to 2 bowls! But I like that they have 3 Sun Belt teams going to bowls.

I thought that anything we sold above the allotment we got to split with the NoLa bowl.

That is exactly what Scott Farmer said on BEV yesterday.

Just left the dome, they had quite a few people reserving tickets for the bowl game. Lady taking payment said it has been steady crowd today.
