Will any of you WATCH another SBC team on TV? This would help in the ratings and help when the contracts get renegotiated. You can still pull for a team to lose (or win), but just put them on or DVR it. Lets show the other conferences we have a wide spread fan base and people actually want to watch our games.

Yes. Makes me aware of who I should be watching out for when we play you.

I watch as many conference games as I can. Sometimes turning
from App State game if the other game has gone down to the wire.

I cheer for all of you during non-conference games, and will watch any Sun Belt game on tv, which I can access.

Go SBC Football !! 04-cheers

RE: Conference rivalry aside we need to pull for each other
We all have our marching orders and we're all in the same boat. It's an absolutely unique circumstance and if you don't pull for the conference in OOC games your heads in the sand. I honestly could have cared less with the exception of App who won OOC games until now. I hate everybody but GS but if a conference member is playing OOC I'll have my damn game face on.03-banghead

Good because I hate GaSo. My niece a GS alum is staying with us for a week I bought her all sorts of Cajun gear and she loves it. She said she will wear Cajun gear as long as we are not playing each other. I said good I got you for two years because the conference gave your school a two year pass on playing the two best teams of the last couple of years in the SBC. But I will watch GS and all conference teams if televised and I'm available.

I can sympathize. If we shared a conference with UTSA I would feel the same way.

I don't care for UTSA at all either, so I don't have to be concerned one way or the other since they reside in coosa. Now, if they were members of the SBC, that would be a different story.

Hell, if we can root for Georgia Southern, which I am doing, you guys could root for anybody.
Grind you teeth and try. What helps the conference helps you.

I'm pulling for everyone OOC.

No results yet on how effective that'll be, but I'll pull, by gawd.

I started pulling for all Sunbelt teams last year.

Well, if you truly don't want to root for another team, don't worry about it. I'm sure the team will do exactly as they'll do regardless of if you root for them or not.

We need to help each other out on fan votes and online polls and the like. Every little bit of name recognition for conference teams is good.

Anyone could do what you mention. Many of us are trying to get some unification in the SBC to help each other. GaSt needs that more than most.

I agree, we need to pull for each other OOC.

This! I could care less until we play them. I don't pull for most competitors but I will usually pull for the underdogs which in most cases will be the SBC team. In conference, no one pulls for any program unless they looking down at them in the standings.
