2012 Football Season
I was just out taking a jog and i couldn't help but feel the excitement for this upcoming season. I feel like a little kid counting down the days until Christmas morning...
Anyway's though, just a few thoughts as i was taking a jog:
This season will be the most competitive season in sunbelt football history. There is alot on the line for schools coming in the conference (USA) and the schools making there last impression within the conference for they will be transitioning to CUSA (FIU & UNT).
Troy has had its worst season in a long time...92 i think? So it is critical for them/ us whatever, to gain ground again if we still want to be the icon of the sunbelt.
ASU was top dawg last year but they still have alot to prove if they want to maintain that position. They have alot going for them with a new/great coach, great recruiting class, etc...but with "THE" LOUISIANA right behind them and then WKU there is alot on the line. "THE" LOUISIANA will be a top contender and WKU's main goal this season is....revenge...bowl eligible. ULM....can't really say much about them bc honestly i dont know. FAU will slowly progress but we won't see much from them i don't think.
My top picks for 2012: ASU, Troy, "THE" LOUISIANA, FIU and WKU....they will set the tone.
Sorry i typed this up fast and kinda just threw this out there off the top of my head...if anyone has any thoughts on anything lets hear it..
Go Troy! Go Sunbelt!

Please show our conference mate a little more respect than calling them 'Lafayette.' This ain't the NO Bowl...

Since you're relatively new to this board, I'll just say there's no need for the 'name game' here. You said you were in a hurry but you took the time to spell it rather than an abbreviation...? just seemed odd to me is all. You'll also find out that everything is not a pissing contest around here...save it until it's time for it.

Honestly, fellow trojan or not...you could go piss in a pot for all i care. Me being somewhat new to this board has nothing to do with anything. I have as much say so as anyone else on here. Who cares whether i spelled out the name "Lafayette" or not....it takes less than 2 seconds to type ULL or Lafayette or whatever....i didn't even think about it when i typed it. Why are u making it such a big deal about this? Way to ruin a thread..hell might as well just throw this thread away now....

You aiight? Dude...bring it down a notch. I could go back and forth with you, but I don't feel like it. Try perusing the smack board and that might give you an idea about the name game. Another thing...choose your battles over here. There are others that will be far less patient than me

Yall, look, I see both sides of it. I don't think he intended to incite a pissing match. It would be like me calling ULM "monroe" which I probably have at one time or not. I don't think they'd take offense to that. BUT, our Louisiana friends don't want to be associated with the Lafayette Leopards, a lower division school. So lets try and respect that.
Oh, and no hard feelings, sometimes people are a little oversensitive here.

PLEASE stop the school name battles! It's boring. If nobody calls you "Louisiana," talk to your marketing department. They failed, not the people who still call you "Lafayette." At least nobody calls you SW Louisiana anymore.
PS -- General Lafayette was a great hero of the American Revolution. His name is nothing to be ashamed of.

I only looked because the thread is called "2012 Football Season." Believe me, had the subject line said "ULL vs. Lafayette vs. Louisiana Smackdown," I would have simply marked the thread as read and moved on.
The point is: Stick to the subject!!
