Hey Rice Fans
Everyone thought we would lose the championship game in 2011. And we went out and destroyed Houston's team and dreams. So, our predictions really mean nothing.

It's why the game is played, not voted on.

Not all schools reside in a top 5 populated city and has a 4.5 million endowment.

Marshall could have used that money.

I'd love to get to the bottom of this. Somebody made a conscious decision somewhere; and whether or not they decided to use one formula or the other is immaterial. Somebody(ies) wanted the game played there; I'm just curious as to why. I've got no dog in the fight, just like to get to know the thinking of this conference's administration a little better.

1st tiebreaker: which city/school needs the money more.

It has to do with if Southern Miss would have lost, then CUSA would have raked in BCS bowl money.

You have a fan 2 posts above this pissing and moaning about USM not letting Houston win in 2011. And the sad part is that isnt the lamest thing I have seen posted this week.03-puke
