Which is exactly why I think it is pure stupidity to play lswho with no return game. We would be so much better off to build our own rep and ignore them completely. We will never get a fair shake when dealing with them anyway.

I understand all of the arguments for saying the WAC, but the question is "Would You Rather". For ME, I would soooo rather beat LSU. That is something that the fans would hate as much as being the CO-national champions. I just can not even tell you how much I would LOVE that.
You mean this year? It's a little late to win the WAC or beat Cal. Next year it is win the WAC.
Win the WAC!! Tech goes bowling!!
Win the WAC.
Well... I would rather grind lswho into dust. If we won the WAC it would be great... but people seem to forget that we already did that... and it didn't really affect us that much. A win over lswho if nothing else would get us national recognition (if only for a week) and just like michigan and bama would stay on the surface of our memories for a long time. Plus I have some buddies that went to liquor state and it would just be so great to shut them up... then to top it off would kill their chances at a national title. Also if we had a lswho win + a decent number of W's (7/8) on our schedule I see no reason for us not to be bowling. In the end... I want to see them lose and us win. If it happens to be in the same game... then I think I might just explode from glee.:D:D:D
well obviously we would all love to win the wac, and have a chance to do it every year...but beating lsu...we would only need to do that once.
If the choice is only one, I would say win the WAC. But like others on here, taking a W in BR would be great!
For THIS program winning the WAC would be best but for me there would be nothing like kicking the corndogs square in the nuts.
If we can beat lsu there's no reason we can't win the WAC.
Beat LSU. Its not even close, especially this year. It would do more for growing our fanbase than winning the WAC.
If we were to pull off a victory at lsu, it would put them in a HUGE bind. They would not want to play us ever again, however, if they chickened out (see men's bball), we would be able to hold that over their heads. That would be unbelievable. I just wished they would have had the guts to play us in the Tim R. years. We beat their conference champs during that time and would have demolished lsu.
I think it would do more for our program and our conference to beat LSU and not quite win the WAC. If we beat LSU, we will gain more support locally as having a quality program and more people will come to see our other games. The eastern press would also feel they have a better comparison about what kind of football is played out west.
Remember 2005 when that was supposed to be Boise's 1st great year. Only problem was they went to Georgia and got stomped. Its one of those games they quickly buried in their recent successful history.
+ I think it would help our bowl chances on this side of the Rockies.
I am not out to bring down LSU on the field year in and year out like Tulane fans like to do. We have made it this far without them consistently on our schedule so I do view that we don't NEED the game. However, if the opportunity presents itself to build our profile in this state when its been so hard to get there for so long. HELL YEAH, beat LSU.
