    It just comes down to overall W/L record. He thinks they will win the Sunbelt and therefore will have them ranked above teams that could have several losses to better programs. Its not a true power ranking.

    Exactly. That's what makes this fun off-season chatter material. Plus, Myerberg does the re-ranking after the season to show which teams he whiffed on. The dust will settle when ULL ends up back in the 70s during the re-ranking. I highly doubt Myerberg, or any rational human being for that matter, thinks ULL is better than Oklahoma State. But it's like you said, the cajuns have a high probability of winning their conference, so they're getting that respect in the preseason ranking.

    HD probably doesn't have a clue about ULL. HD, they won 9 games the past 3 years. They won the NO Bowl 3 consecutive years. They return a very good dual-threat QB, 2 very nice RBs, a very good WR, and 4/5 linemen. The defense is decent and they return about 9 guys over there. Everyone is saying this is supposed to be the Cajuns' year. That being said, they are good, but they still get blown out by the likes of Arkansas, Kansas St, and South Alabama, and even lost to ULM last year in Lafayette.

    Thank you Captain, a/k/a T1.


    It's still ULL. And 99% of there wins are over suck-ass teams. I'm NOT as impressed with ULL as some of you are.

    I'm not extremely impressed with ULL, but I do respect what Hudspeth has been able to do. They are not the ULL of 5 years ago. They play good, sound football most of the time and they will most likely win 9 games again this year. That's why the experts are giving them some credit.

    If Hudspeth is so good, why hasn't he been hired away? He's not breaking the bank at ULL.

    That's a good question. He also had success at North Alabama (66-21 in 7 years). His overall record is now 93-33 in 10 years as a head coach. He's a good coach, but not a hot commodity. Must have some skeletons in his closet or something?

    HD, I think they recently bumped his salary to 1,000,000/year.

    Haha! Keep squirming. The hard reality is smacking you in the grill. It matters not whether we are SBC, CUSA or Big12, in 3 short years we have left you in the dust. You will witness first hand what a true college atmosphere us all about very soon. Hope to see you there!

    That makes no sense. It matters a lot and you are in the dust. BTW, is ESPN3 carrying this game?

    You are building a house of cards...structurally and financially.

    You've gone 9-4 three years in a row with wins in the NO bowl, the only three bowls you've played in. Congratulations.

    Now here's some hard reality for you. Last year you lost to ULM at home, to one of the worst Arkansas teams ever, and got stomped by South Alabama.

    You're putting a tractor shed up as your south endzone 'expansion', but hey, at least it matches your recruiting trailers.

    South Endzone Expansion


    Recruiting Trailers




    It's also nice to see that you are replicating what your brothers up in Monroe did with your new jumbotron. You will look just like them, now that's separation.

    ULM


    ULL


    It's understandable that your fanbase is making noise as there is finally a product to be proud about, but make no mistake, we see no dust. Enjoy what you perceive as 'separation' while it lasts, it will be just a matter of time before those wins won't come as often, and the newness of these half-assed facility improvement projects will wear off and they will become just an eyesore.

    Now that's a hard reality.
