That was really special to see, two great and respectful programs on national tv in the prime SEC spot.

I'm glad we have a couple more games against each other, but I would like to see this become a regular matchup.

You know, there's room for 1 or 2 more football programs in the Sun Belt...

Trust me, most marshall fans would rather join the SBC than be stuck where we are. It's not the CUSA we joined in 2005 and it's time for a change.

I don't know about joining the current sun belt, but I would love to see a new conference that includes most of CUSA East and Sun Belt East teams.

Doubt that ever happens brother, would take two conferences agreeing with each other in almost every topic and waiving fees. We have major leadership issues in CUSA, that alone is a reason to leave. If we could talk WKU into going with us as a travel partner, I don't see the rationale on why not, excluding fees etc. Our league just gets worse every year since Cato left, the media rights are the worst by far among the G5, Bowl destinations are going to follow, the 5 hold overs didn't add enough value to maintain, UTEP has been a mess since Price left, USM gets moving some once every 4 years now which is a shame considering they are not soo much different than us, Rice is never going to rise up, UAB and us currently looks to be the only ones doing anything good. You have LT that seems consistent, MT couldn't be consistent if they tried, WKU had a nice run and now is down some, FAU will go downward, FIU who knows, UNT is up and down like a trampoline, UTSA same way. Thats all we have to hang our hat on against the SBC, one or two bowl slots that is a little better, but that won't last.
