3rd place Cajuns 6-2 went bowling
4th place FIU 5-3 went bowling
Just 2 years ago but many seem to forget.We at WKU have NOT and it is one of the reasons we went to C-USA!
Yeah that sucks, but they took those for market and/or geography. Same thing that might happen to us with Troy next week.
Agreed. And that is why the current arrangement is so bad. The bowls should be a reward for winning, not for being located close to a bowl. UL deserves any bowl they get this year, but under the current arrangement ,basically as long as UL is eligible, they have a bid to NOLA. USA and Troy have a leg up on everyone else as long as they are eligible. So Ark St, Tx St, ULM, WKU, Ga St, and next year Idaho, NMSU, Ga So and App St ahve to win the conference to get a bid, while the other three teams only have to win 6 games.
