Okay, they really didn't say that about the Belt, but could have.

Why don't you go discuss this worthless crap on YOUR Sunbelt board instead of here. Buh-bye

Bc it's schools like Latech that's making these 2 conferences look bad!

Yep. Though I admit, I'm not sure its as well researched as it should be.

Some of your fellow conference members might take exception to your characterization of C-USA as worthless crap.

Well, this is kind of like two kids on the short bus going toe to toe. lol

My toe is bigger.

Are you surprised? AAC was BCS until the playoff came about, MWC and MAC were constantly putting teams in position for the BCS bowls, and CUSA was just a year or two of stability at each raid to be something special.

I'll take issue with the comments sure, but to get mad at the rankings is asinine.

This doesn't sound too great either:

Top 4: UCF, Houston, Cincinnati, and ECU
Below that: a mess

CUSA can bypass that, imo.

Indeed. And quite easily at that.

Ah, the heck with it. Everybody just start winning your OOC games and stop bitchin'.

CUSA doesn't have much outside the projected top 4 (although I think FAU has the pieces to be a good team too) and the SBC really doesn't have much this year outside their top two. USA and Troy will probably be decent, but Idaho, Georgia State, and NMSU are just terrible.

App State had a pretty poor season last year, I'd be shocked to see them move up a level and rebound from the disaster that was last season. GaSo has a new coach on top of moving up a level, so things could be rocky for them this season too.

I had to look twice before I realized that yes, for sure, the poster is a Charlotte 49'er expounding on the subject of terrible football.

The WAC, MAC, and CUSA have ranked teams practically every year, and La Tech has had one of those teams on more than one occasion. The Sun Belt has NEVER, EVER had a single team break into the Top 25, yet you have the nerve to come on the CUSA board and attack La Tech? Maybe you'll seem more credible if a team from the Sun Belt ever breaks into the Top 25 for the very first time. That's going to be even tougher to do now that the Sun Belt has lost what most considered to be it's premier institutions. Anyway, you obviously carry a grudge against La Tech as is evidenced by your screen name. Are you related to Eager Eagle?

They are definitely the new experts. Once NC Central starts handing you your backside you are have reached Hall of Champions of suck. And hey I am not the one calling teams out as "terrible". Once you do that, Game On. Glad we have them on the schedule in '15.

Uh, I thought he was just pulling your leg there BR. Otherwise, there's no logic at all to what he said.

On another topic, which premier institutions did the Belt lose?

And finally, speaking of LaTech, I was dumbfounded when I learned that Tech had never sold out its stadium, even during the 2012 season when late in the year you guys played at home ranked #19 in the nation. What's up with that?

LaTech has an unusual situation in which they've used Indepedendence stadium for over 70 home games over the years for some of their bigger games which partially explains why they haven't sold out their home stadium. How many teams have that option? I'll let LaTech fans fill in more if they have the info.

As to which premiere teams left the Sun Belt for C-USA? I'll let others provide input there.

The logic that panama is using has always baffled me. My school didn't have a team until last year, so I guess I just never watched football? I can't recognize trash when I see it?

While we're discussing Ga State, if a football game is scheduled and nobody is there to see it, did it really happen?

Ga State is a joke. They were the worst addition to any conference in re-alignment. No fans, no funds, no facilities. It's not just coincidence that there are only like 3 Georgia State fans on this board. Nobody cares about them. Nobody.

I will answer for him. No, we aren't related. You will notice that I provide factual supporting data when I make a statement or else clearly identify my comment as an opinion.

I heard we canceled that game to play UK btw. The UK game hasn't been formally announced yet (but it has been confirmed internally).

You have quite a bit of confidence for a fan of a team that didn't win a game last year. You got worked over hard by several FCS schools, yet it was your third year and you were supposedly FBS.

Let me know if you break actual 5,000 fans at your first game this year.

You'll win 2 games this year, max. If you lose to NMSU, 1 win will be a successful season for Ga. State.
