Majority of the conference teams would be eliminated from postseason contention halfway through the season which made for a rather boring end. Personally, I am pleased Troy's bowl destiny was not solely determined by winning the conference. Perspective...some have it. 04-cheers

This is one of several reasons I'm glad App joined the Sun Belt in 2014 instead of 2001. Potentially going 9-3 like Troy did and not making a bowl game would be awful. App was so much better off in the 2000's competing for FCS titles.

We went 8-4 in 2007 (Co-Champs) and Didn't go to a bowl game...

We had a Win over Oklahoma State that same year.

That is so wrong. Such a shame for those players. This conference is waaaaay better off than it was back then, and the access to bowl games is one of the reasons.

That said, I think it's a fair topic to discuss whether the bowl selection process is the best it can be. It's obviously better than it was several years ago, but can it be better? That's perfectly debatable.
