2009: L 45-35
2008: L 38-3
2007: L 45-31
2006: L 55-14

396-177

or an average loss of 44-20.

Quite frankly, I'm sick of getting blown out by Boise every year and I could use a year off from it!

This will definitely get somebody's attention for conference realignment.

[Reddawg]

Yes. CUSA plays a lower tier SEC team. Looks like Mississippi State or Tennessee this year.

Would love to see us swap and end up in the Liberty against Tennessee.

Say what? What do you mean "we can't see the Dawgs in person"?? That's silly. It's San Diego, CA, not Moscow, Russia.

You may have cheaper flights from Dallas to SD than I do from ATL to SD and they'd only take half as long but...

Some irony:

The Louisiana Tech Department of Agricultural Sciences annual poinsettia show and auction is scheduled for Nov. 30.
This year, the event will take place at Squire Creek Country Club in Choudrant. As with previous years, however, a varied collection of poinsettias of all shapes and colors will be available at the auction.

Maybe we should get them to donate some and throw them on the field after we win?

This Tech team is better than any of those previous teams.

They are much tougher on the blue. 205-164 in Ruston. (41-33 avg)

Maybe this is also a way for the Poinsettia bowl to have a bargaining chip for a possible swap. Its harder to talk swap when nothing is set-up yet. If the Poinsettia already has us, then another regional bowl and conference could make a definite deal with them.

Finally, someone on this thread is making some rational sense. I was beginning to think I had accidentally slipped into some online LSD rehabbers' discussion forum or something.

[LThoo]

I got red dotted because I'm not bouncing with joy about having to play Boise? Wow.

We owe them, for sure. I don't really care who it is, as long as it isn't a MAC/SBC level school.

I think we have a shot against boise. They can't be happy about playing us when they had bcs dreams all year long.

I'd love to see Chad Boyd "accidentally" run over Peterson AND Karl Benson on the sidelines. Of course I don't want them carted off to the hospital...just knocked out for a few minutes.

I thought the MWC champion plays in the Liberty Bowl against the CUSA champion. Has that changed?

The $EC took over the Liberty tie-in from the MWC in 2005. Utah was in the BC$ in 2004, so it didn't play in the Liberty that year.

[EngDawg]

I would perfer TCU over Boise simply because it is a better match up for us....their strength is running vs our strength is run defense. TCU is still a top notch opponent and a better match up.

[Laman1978]

Do we have to?

Have some balls! This could be a blessing in disguise. It is a chance to finally beat those bastards and get Tech on the map!!!!!!!!!!!!!
