it's amazing how far Tech has come from playing Clemson in Boise

That was a painful game.

Even further how far Clemson has come...

true

How far you've come? What do you think the chances are that this lame-ass conference will ever get you another bowl against Clemson?

The WAC was better than CUSA 2.0, higher rated teams and more BCS teams

Yep - seems like Clemson has moved on from playing us in bowl games lately

You have a better chance today of playing a highly ranked P5 team in a bowl than you ever did in any version of CUSA.

A cold one too. That was the coldest I've ever been at a football game in my life.

LA Tech's QB that day --Luke McCown-- is still playing in the NFL today. Just last week McCown signed a 1-yr contract with the Dallas Cowboys. This will be his 14th year in the NFL.

Probably made 8+ million in that time and not 1/20th of the punishment to his body and head.

Actually, this past off-season it was reported that McCown had earned over $16.5M during his long career as a backup QB in the NFL. Not a bad job if you can get it.

Estimated Career Earnings
Year Salary Signing Bonus
2014 $855,000 $65,000
2015 $970,000 $80,000
2016 $1,000,000 $500,000

13 seasons $12,565,000 $3,947,000

This one says Luke McCown has earned over $17M in his career.
