We beat ole miss the last time we played, 2011? We lost to MS State I believe that same year but beat them a couple years before that. Not sure about bama, before my time.Quote:

Yes it is. We were in total control of both games until the melt down happened late.Quote:

The first time we played them it was even worse than that.Quote:

That was the game dad became a Freddie King fan (sarcasm)Quote:

How is the CUSA western division decided? Best record versus teams in the west or best overall CUSA record?
I tried looking on the CUSA website but couldn't find a clear answer.

CUSA is actually even less fair than normal this season because our divisions are unbalanced, so some teams from the East aren't even playing all their division-mates.
Ostensibly, all the teams in a given conference are at roughly the same level of competitiveness. That's why they elected to associate with one another.Quote:
