New Orleans Bowl: December 19, 9 p.m. Arkansas State (9-3) vs. Louisiana Tech (8-4): Games like this are why I do these rankings. You may look at this matchup and write this one off, but I'm telling you, this game will be worth your time. You don't have to know the teams to enjoy a game.

25. R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl (Dec. 19, New Orleans) – Arkansas State (9-3) vs. Louisiana Tech (8-4)
After starting 1-3 in a challenging non-conference slate, Arkansas State tore through the Sun Belt, going a perfect 8-0 to finish 9-3. Louisiana Tech, led by Florida transfer Jeff Driskel at quarterback, should present a bigger challenge than the average Sun Belt foe. Driskel has serious weapons in end zone magnet RB Kenneth Dixon (83 career TDs – that’s not a typo) and WR Trent Taylor (89 catches, 1,113 yards, 8 TDs).

In these writeups about the NO Bowl, all of these sites (or writers) seem to be talking a lot more about LA Tech than Ark State to "sell" this game to readers/potential viewers.

The reason why is left to the reader's imagination
