    He probably thought so at the time, but Lafayette has won 3 bowls in a row.

    Duh, we all know who we are playing:

    I see UNT and ULL in the same light.... been down for years, got good new coaches and are turning it around. I'm not a believer yet either, but I like their system of tough, physical defense first....

    UTSA is loaded this year (like ULL). Rice is rebuilding a bit, but they have established a system under Bailiff and I think they are at a point where they reload instead of rebuild... we'll see. ...

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread

    I just hope y'all won't be claiming another win against a weak CUSA team after Week 2. Hopefully the Dawgs have improved enough to give y'all a game. I think ULL would definitely be one of the Top...

    but, but, but...

    16 Sun Belt wins:

    - Tulane (4)
    - UAB (4)
    - Memphis (3)

    * Those were some awful CUSA teams. Usually at the very bottom of the league.

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread

    I've been following Tech football since 1989 and we do pretty well against non-AQ teams who historically are not very strong.

    For example, Tech is a combined 53-12-1 against these teams since...

    I agree... conference doesn't have to hold a program back, but Boise seems blessed. They were good when Houston Nutt was the coach. They lost him and upgraded with Dirk Koetter and got better. ...

    The difference is that Boise was very, very good. They destroyed WAC teams and beat Pac 12 and MWC teams regularly. They were a BCS caliber team playing in a non-BCS conference. ULL struggles with...

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread

    They are comparable, but I don't see why the Sun Belt will fare better than CUSA in the future, like you stated. Seeing what UTSA has done, I wouldn't sleep on any program. As for the head to...

    Those are the keys. If you get the money and the fans.... it's our biggest hindrance.

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread

    I don't think so. The thing that helps the Sun Belt in conference rankings is that you have fewer teams in the conference. Look at it this way:

    They have always had a strong baseball program (much better than ours). They beat us in basketball, but we had the higher ranked team at the end of the season. I think we will likely beat them next...

    Separation means "away from, not associated with, or in another conference from; preferably the one with the better perception." But we have also dominated ULL in football too. Fortunately for ULL,...

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread

    We are separated though and ULL and ULM would love to be in CUSA with us. It's a better league. But as far as on the field, Tech has only been down 1 year. I think we would have beaten ULL in 2011...

    Re: Cajun Posts from Countdown Thread
