Most of y'all are old enough to remember our colossal disappointments in years gone by. I hope for our athlete's sake that they get a bowl. The sting of 2012 still resonates with me and 2005 and 99 and 97 weren't much easier....though they are now somewhat distant memories.

Don't make any hotel reservations....

Sadly, if we DON'T get a bowl, our fan base IS to blame. PERIOD. The showing last Saturday was abysmal. It reminded me of the season-ending 2002 game against UTEP at Independence Stadium. My daughter and I got there mid first quarter and parked where we saw fit, basically right by the entrance. I am grateful to our university leadership and benevolent donors who helped build our athletes and fans a first class football experience. Regrettably, we are a few years away from having a true fan base.
