Since I started this...I will say I am glad my suspicions were not founded....a 6-6 is better than a 5-7, and good on the men on the team for finding a way to win. Very proud of our defense
any bowl especially I-Bowl will be welcome.
#1-- without a bowl we lose 20 days of extra practice -which we sure need for offense.
#2 Recruiting--4 bowls in a row looks great--
#3 national exposure and reachable for fan base (Shreveport) --
#4 Craft-Boston - Barnes and the seniors will get 4 bowl games in their career
Shreveport has new sponsor and they are not anti-Tech . Both Tech and I Bowl need to move on-- Dykes did not want a bowl and did not push for I Bowl, our AD dropped the ball-- I Bowl upset when we delayed decision-- time to look at whats good for Tech -- Skip said it best-- "anyone who offers we should take"
