Agreed in the sense that it's not a crucial win for our bowl eligibility, but it is a critical matchup if we want to win the division. La. Tech needs three of any combination of wins by them and losses by us to clinch the division, and they have a much easier next couple weeks than we do, so I'd rather rely on Rice to get the W against Marshall than hope that La. Tech somehow loses to either UAB or ODU.

Um yeah but......
We basically need to win out or win all but Marshall and pray that La Tech loses at UAB or ODU.
