They beat the Sun Belt champions in a bowl game several years ago I hear.

Arrrrhghhh. Of course that wasn't y'all was it. Yeah I know your almost winless team beat us last year.

Grambling nearly waltzed out of there with a win. Nobody mentioned how Grambling pretty much whooped Tech in every stat. And no, it wasn't because Tech had their second and third string players in.

Grambling made it a 6-point game with about 3:30 left. They then recovered the onside kick, but unfortunately for them, they couldn't convert on 4th and 5 on La Tech's 47 yard line.

That's embarassing considering ULM drubbed Grambling 31-9.

What's even more embarassing is that ULM had 28,300 in attendance for their game, and both schools are 40 minutes apart... and La Tech had 23,174 in attendance... and Grambling is literally a 7-minute drive from La Tech.

What does that say?

That includes two total shellackings of ULL in a home and home series in which neither game was competitive after the the first quarter, the curb stomping of SBC Champion Ark St in the second half of the New Orleans Bowl after a very competitive first half, and two wins over USA in another home and home series. It's not surprising that you guys love to hate on us. It's obvious to anyone paying attention how much those five wins bugged you guys. You still aren't over it.

We currently own the longest bowl winning streak in the nation at 6 with wins over P5 member Illinois, SBC Champion Ark State, top 25 ranked Navy, the AAC's SMU, the MWC's Hawaii on their home field in the Hawaii Bowl, and the P5 Miami Hurricanes.

I think we hold our own pretty well in a comparison to any of you.

One ten-win season in 31 years of FBS ball. Zero with 11+.

App State: Four ten win seasons, three of which are 11 win seasons, one of which is a 13 win season. All in only six years of FBS ball.

I'll take the school playing in the Sun Belt.

To be fair, two of those wins were against a bad USA team. I’m not saying you do this, but I’ve seen some bragging about these wins and we weren’t good so it’s kinda comical. In 2017 La Tech beat a 4-win USA team that wasn’t good and lead to Joey Jones’ resignation. In 2018 you faced a 3-9 USA team in Steve Campbell’s first game as coach (which we almost won). I hope the USA teams you guys face in 2022 and 2027 are a little better. Good luck this year!
