RE: Pulling for conference mates

That just wasn't true in the SoCon. The feeling that we are all in this together is much stronger here. I hope the Coastal fans see this.
In any postseason play I pull for any Belt team vs whoever. I know during conference seasons, especially in football, the rivalries are there but I have noticed great support for each other in bowls
There are real stakes now, not just simple pride.
The amount of extra money we got from finishing 3rd in the G5 conference standings instead of fifth is about what we would net from a single money game.
The amount of money we're getting from Georgia State and Little Rock's NCAA tournament wins isn't negligible, either.
