I find it hard to believe that ULM people are still claiming that misinformation. Tech did not turn down a bowl bid. The Indy Bowl people became impatient for absolutely no reason. Tech was consistent in what they said from the beginning. The Indy Bowl could have waited a few hours until all games were played.

I suspect that SB fans in general have formed their opinions of Tech based on biased misinformation supplied them from the ULM and ULL fan base, that consistently appear more than happy to criticize Tech about things they know absolutely nothing about. Also because Tech leads the all time series against both by a substantial margin and current winning streaks of 6 and 8 games, respectively.

Myself and the other stAte fans formed our opinion of tech from watching the thugs(helped along by Joe Raymond Peace) and listening to your fans acting like you are to good for the rest of us. Quit blaming the Cajuns and Warhawks. We knew what jerks you are a long time ago.

This is the first and only time I have heard anyone claiming Tech played dirty football. I attended pretty much every home game during JRPs tenure and dirty play by Tech did not happen. Hard hitting football did. Sounds like your guys just couldn't handle physical football. Your claim lacks merit.

Southern Miss played hard hitting football and we've never had an issue with them or their fans. Tulsa played hard hitting football, same thing. Etc., etc.

Excuse does not compute.

I'm not making any excuses. I'm saying Ark State fans do not have a rational reason for hating Tech, other than the normal rivalry type stuff. But, it seems Ark State fans share with the ULM and ULL people the personal hatred toward Tech and fans. I'm saying there is no reason for that. It doesn't really matter one way or another, other than when people make false claims about Tech or the fan base. Its just a message board anyway.
