2012 New Orleans Bowl

[CajunEXPRESS]

WKU, with that moron from McBroke Back U, takes an awful huge risk and loses the game. Then tries to bring the players on board by suggesting he discussed it with them and they agreed. Coaches should never let the players make the call.

By that time I think WKU had all the momentum, why throw it away. Can your field goal kicker be that bad?

Sun Belt is 2-2 not 1-2 this year.

See first sentence of his post.

Thanks, I see that now. Not sure why you wouldn't include last night's game.

6,974 is a top-10 lock

6,974 is a top-10 lock

Assume a major increase with a more local opponent and you could be talking top five this year. Some of the bowls were off but the NO Bowl has had only the Cajuns to rely upon. If a USM or SMU type opponent were there, the numbers would have been off the charts.

[Boomer]

If the tickets were $40-$60 dollars---every 1k loss is about $50K----Lose about 10-20K and we are talking some bucks---I think we have a a little negotiation room from our last 2 years!!! The other thing that sticks out is when HUD says we are the best fans in America---I think he is very close to it by some standards---bowl travel and maybe noise !!!!

The noise level is still something that gives me shivers. The last series was deafening in the Dome.
