The TECH crowd and noise level looked and sounded great on TV as well. I was home with a resp. flu.
All the NO bowl proves is the slum belch chumpion is better than the bottom of the MAC bowl available teams. Not much to brag about.
Seriously though, we're playing AND BEATING a Big Ten school handily on national TV in the Cotton Bowl and a Cajun fan...talking smack??!! If you ever thought for a second we were "equals" that should put that ridiculousness to bed forever. Stupid Cajuns. Go play in the 'belt.
I don't know how many of you may have seen this, but if you have about an hour and want to see a computer simulation of the game (EA Sports - XBOX 360) that was done a few days before the actual game, you can see it at the following link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1Waqs02cao.
I have not played any of the football video games so I don't know how the players are selected for the teams, but you'll probably be scratching your head and having to check the roster on http://www.latechsports.com/sports/m...ootbl-mtt.html to see who some of the players are in the simulation. Some of the players were not really a factor for Tech all year, but played well in the simulated game. And you'll see a few players who weren't able to play in the final two games. And you'll be asking where some other players are since you won't see them in the game. But overall I found it to be entertaining.
Tech ALWAYS travels well . . . now that we're in the C-USA.
