Of course they are the worst. Those who didn't know they were the worst before they joined weren't paying attention. They've had this humble/thankful act going all year that anyone with any knowledge of them knew was an act.

The fact that they are the worst is one of the things that makes them an asset to the conference.

Losing to Georgia Southern will be more painful than losing to FAU. Beating Georgia Southern will be more enjoyable than beating FAU. The conference has needed stuff like that....and boy does it have it now.

Wait, I thought we were all agreeing that we are the Best? 03-drunk

I'm super impressed with what y'all were able to accomplish. You transitioned well and that's great for you and the conference as a whole. Congrats again you deserve it.

Well Slycat... (Thanks for the second part of your post) but before you preach to Southern fans, you might want to reel one of your own in - Comments like his stir the bee hive.

Maybe one year when your team is good enough to win it all you can have a nice little asterisk next to your name too.

In case that beating you got by Navy has clouded your memory... As of right now, TXST IS good enough to beat GS.
NM that they proved they were talented enough to beat you a few weeks ago. In fact, TXST is by far the best team you've beaten this season and it wasn't even remotely close to a convincing win.

"Yippee yay, we're conference champs and we're going to rub it in Cajun fans faces because we dodged two of the best teams in the belt and beat a school that finished 7th in conference last year"

BTW - I look forward to TXST kicking your faces in next season.

Wasn't an act with all of us. Sure, we'll talk trash and have fun, but many of us are very thankful to be here after having wanted to be here for a long time and had to suffer through terrible leadership before someone finally got us in position to do it.

All of us, however, are very confident in how good our team has been traditionally. If that makes us insufferable then so be it, but you'll never see us bow down to any team. We will respect you for what you do on the field, but we never respect anyone that just talks and can't back it up. We've achieved too much in our history and done too much when being told that we would never amount to anything to be any different.

All fan bases have them, some just have more.

I also agree it's a better problem to have then fixing teams performance at the bottom. Just wish one GS or App thread could end without a bunch of posturing from all fan bases. Some GS only post to stir the pot and then some fans of other bases liek to hit the bees nest to get things going as well.

One thing I've learned is this will never end with a conference championship game. But GS won with the hand they were dealt and thats all they can do.

I'm assuming you meant the only way such conversation will end is WITH a conference championship game.

I would concur with that statement, if that is what you meant ... and it is precisely for that reason that a lot of Georgia Southern fans would love to see a true conference championship game format.

While it may have some risks, we have a history of doing pretty well with such formats and despite the fact we've lost in some situations with winner-take-all scenarios, we've lived to fight another day and that has always fueled interest in our program and seeing how we will do the following year.

Regardless how this season ends for us, it has been a successful one. It will be difficult for us to replicate this next season when we break in a new offensive line, but that will be the bar to clear.

Hi Pounce. I was out of town from 11/9-11/14 but when I checked back onto the website the evening of the 14th, many of the posters were having the exact same argument from the week before about the GS/TXST game. I can only take so much of it. However, I did stop by this morning to congratulate App State on their win over UL.

All I want for Christmas is that this conference kick the crap out of our OOC opponents during the 2015 season.

RE: Ga Southern Sun Belt Champs!
I used to not be that concerned about a CCG, seeing as how the B1G played 8 games in an 11-team conference for years, and it didn't seem to bother them. Now that it's happened in my conference, I assume it either bothered them or they should have let it bother them, as this season is as good an argument as any for a CCG or round-robin scheduling (and I know what that means in many people's minds, it's not meant to spark a "drop Idaho" debate...although I'm sure there are many that would just as soon drop my Panthers).

Also, welcome back, sarkelcpa!

Please try to note screen names. It's not even most of us, I swear.

That being said, there are a few sore losers scattered about as well.

Well hopefully this season will be the catalyst for some Presidents to agree to add a CCG. I'm all for #12 asap. I'm even down for 14 if the money can be figured out. I know this is completely ironic coming from a GSU fan, but forget markets and potential. We need the biggest fan bases and established programs from which ever schools we choose. If the 8 team playoff comes to pass and the G5 gets a slot, we need programs that can get it done and represent. If it's Liberty, JMU, or Jacksonville St, so be it.

If the quality schools are there then I'm all for adding to 12. I just don't want us adding teams that will be bottom dwellers.

Not at all. If we had a loss and needed App to beat ULL for us to get a share, then yeah, that would hurt.

ULL could probably relate to that this weekend.

As it was, we controlled our own destiny from day 1.

even if app lost to both of those schools, we would still be playing for the championship this week.
