Isleta New Mexico Bowl: Louisiana vs TCU

They’re toads. Not frogs. They don’t do well in a gumbo. And stuff comes out of their eyes when they are cornered. A gator would likely eat one, though. Just saying.

Loved NM and Albuquerque. Lived on base for year and one half there. Great food and amazing views. Ask locals where not to go. If gondola is running take it up to Sandia Crest. The city is just over a mile high and is near base of 10,000 ft Sandia peak. Neat vistas.

Man, it takes a special type of person to be a Cajuns fan! lol. A night ago, we were getting waxed by Marshall and everyone was down on this team (me included) and one night later, at least some of us are excited at the prospect of playing a Big 12 team!

This obviously could go one of two ways. I for one am certainly not leaning toward the one where we come out and light the world on fire. But, alas, in Ragin’ Cajun land, hope springs eternal.

Geaux Cajuns!

Jack Bech won’t be playing. They do still have several weapons…but no Jack.

Is he hurt, or did he opt out?

Interesting. Opting out or hurt?

He's their top WR- I'd rather him not play against his hometown team

Hurt. He has a MCL sprain. Sucks for the kid. My nephew is one of his best friends and I assure you he wants to play against the Cajuns.

Side note, this is our first Bowl game vs. a team currently in a “Power” conference. Let’s throw the damn kitchen sink at these frogs!

This is by far the most prestigious school we’ve played in a bowl. They were in the natty 2 years ago. Pretty cool.

Much less a SBC school? HC, you realize the SBC has been the top G5 conference these last few years? (Top to bottom that is)

I think it's only the top teams that define a conference. The SBC is #3 G5 and maybe lower in perception. I'll admit I am biased because I don't like the SBC except for about 5 schools.

3 weeks till the game, he has some time to get ready.
