    Win Saturday = Independence Bowl Bid ?

    It is almost certain now that a CUSA team will be in the Independence Bowl. The opponent will likely be a P5 ACC team.

    Knowing how badly Frank Wilson- HC, Frank Scelfo- Off Coord, and Pete Golding- Def Coord want to recruit Louisiana UTSA will definitely be trying to get that bid over Tech by eliminating us. All three coaches are from Louisiana and they spend a big chunk of their time recruiting Louisiana players to UTSA. I hope we are ready to play some serious football Saturday night.

    I think if we win, we're bowling in S'port.
    Have you considered those Dogs?

    Regardless of whether we get a bowl invite or not, I want to see this team FINISH with a win. A 6-6 finish should now be the goal. If we get a bowl invite after beating UTSA, then great. But I don't have as much faith in the Indy Bowl leadership as some of you do, so I'm not counting on that. Besides, even if we beat UTSA and don't receive a bowl invite, I'm fine with that. We put ourselves in this position, and I've never been a fan of 6-6 teams being in bowl games anyway. Just win Saturday!

    Agreed. If we make the I Bowl I will take me and my girlfriend. I wouldn’t put my friends in a position to watch our offense.

    I think the pressure to win to save the season is too much for this team and this coaching staffs to overcome.
    this team doesn't have the leadership on and off the field to take them over the hump.
    We crumbled when there was any pressure to win the whole season.
    Really hope we can win a meaningful game this year.

    I am with you on the "hope" part. For our seniors and for our team I hope they pull out a clutch win Saturday.

    Holtz needs to unleash J'mar and let's him run lose this weekend.

    Indy is the best bowl for THIS team. I don't think we'd have the turnout in Dallas or NOLA as we had in the past 3 years. Those teams had an excitement factor built in that we wanted to see.

    If we're in I-Bowl, a large portion of our fanbase doesn't have to travel. We just act like its a normal game day and drive to the game.

    What fan base? You mean all of those thousands of fans in Shreveport/Bossier City who won't drive 75 miles to Ruston are now going out to the ghetto part of town and fill the Stadium. No way.
