Cajuns' bowl foe to have quick turnaround

[jllanclos]

You are looking at the schedule in hindsight, (full of unforeseen occurrences) I'm looking at it when it was set up.

In foresight (not hindsight), they scheduled Ga. Southern WITHOUT EITHER of the champions from the previous 3 YEARS of the conference.

The Sun Belt wrapped this gift for them with a pretty bow.

They won the games. They're the champion. Congrats. No argument there.

But let's not pretend the Sun Belt didn't have their lips firmly planted on their asses when they made the schedule.

The same ones that made our basketball schedule as difficult as possible.

They see the writing on the wall, I believe. They know who's next out of this dump, and it's not Texas State or Ga. Southern or App St. But I guess that's just wishful thinking.

The other thing about these start up FBSers is the past it was easier for them to get transfers from other universities because they were not FBS competition. Programs are not going to release them to play immediately at GA Southern but will for SE Louisiana or McNeese. It will be very similar what happened to Troy.

This is a ridiculous thread! You say the league pampered the newbies, but each played different schedules! One played us and stAte, beating both, and the other didn't. Regardless, literally everyone said preseason that either would be lucky to win 4-5 games, TOTAL.
We had our chance and blew it!!! Nuff said!!

I would be ____ed if I was App state, they had to play the Cajuns and stAte, both on the road and somehow southern avoids is both all together.

And app won both. That says a lot about how good app finished this season. At the end of the season, I think they were playing the best football of anyone in the SBC .

I agree ... they aren't getting the credit they deserve ... and nobody is saying anything about them being bowl eligible (record wise).

They beat us at our own game.

They did, and in hindsight you can say that but nobody knew that when they made the schedule.

I understand your point but this Ga Southern team does not have any impact transfers. The biggest transfer is a back up QB from FIU. Hardly what you would call a big time transfer.

[MelRock]

You are probably right, I do not know their team and could not name one player or where they came from. I have never been to their website even. I have to believe they have some players that could not get into larger universities because of their grades and are making an impact. Again I do not know but I think it will be harder to recruit for them going forward.

And for what it's worth, Savannah St-Navy-NC State-Ga Tech don't sniff Southern-La Tech-Boise St-Ole Miss this year. I know you will say we didn't compete in our games, but a W is a W and an L is an L.

Actually, I think in the end, it's pretty similar
