[NewsCopy]

JONESBORO, Ark. — They wanted to go bowling in style, winning this weekend and perhaps accepting an invitation sometime later this week. Instead, the UL Ragin' Cajuns will go with another scuff on their shoes. A loss Saturday at Arkansas State ...

We need for Western Kentucky to lose 1 more game...then the invite will happen.

Anything worth having is worth waiting for.

We have eight wins. The NO Bowl wants us. The conference champ / bowl rep will go to Mobile. All of the conference obligations will be met. If another team finishes ahead of us in a tie, the conference will try to place them somewhere. If not they will get left out just as we did in the MOA fiasco when WW spent all his time working to get Schnelly in a bowl.

When our last game against zona and we won't have to be worrying

I have a feeling the announcements will come after the November 26 games. Reasons: I expect ASU & WKU will win their 2 remaining games. ASU's last game is on December 3, but if they win on November 26, they will guarantee no worse than a tie with WKU. Since they beat WKU, they win the "tie-break," making them the conference champion (they will be anyway after beating Troy). I'm not going to guess how things will play out just yet, as far as who is going to what bowls, I'm just predicting announcements will be made after those games.

If ASU beats Middle....it's over. The conference championship is ASU's. They own the tiebreaker over WKU. If they win next week...Godaddy.com Bowl can send them the invite...we get the invite to New Orleans Bowl and WKU is hoping for someone to not fill their bowl slots.

This is the correct statement.

If you’re a UL football fan, you know the bowl invitation is coming. It just seems like it’s never going to get here. The Ragin’ Cajuns’ 30-21 loss at Arkansas State on Saturday pushed back plans for an official bid extension to the R&L Carriers ...

Formal announcement of the Ragin Cajuns' long-anticipated invitation to the New Orleans Bowl could come as early as Monday, depending on the outcome of games this weekend involving both Sun Belt Conference-leader Arkansas State and current conference No. 2 Western Kentucky.

Enough of the hype my our media. We just need to be patent for out invite o New Orleans. It will happen but I would bet that it will NOT be Monday. Nice try Tim.

[SlappyCajun]

It could very well be Monday if stAte wins, because then the GoDaddy.com Bowl would not have to wait for anything else.
