The Texas State poster wants to debate the 2014 Camellia Bowl, the La Tech poster probably followed me from elsewhere, and the ULL people...just don't want to EARN their top 3 bowl on the field.

Tom, you are now just doing this to be difficult.

I have repeatedly stated that I am using 2014 as an example to how you didn't see a problem until you were "forced" to go to Arizona.

We beat stAte that year, had the same conference record, and had the same overall record. They went bowling, we didn't. Yet, "Yeah, that sucks. Oh well, that's how bowls work though, and when you get your shot, you'll need to prove your worth. I have faith in you guys" was the standard response. Which I actually believe!

But now that you are going to Arizona... You are trying to claim you are championing the conference, when the reality is... it's your own sour grapes.

So, continue lying about your motives, but please... stop lying about me. You're better than that.

Then why would I propose a metric that would put us in precisely the exact same place as we ended up now?

Because you are like the neighbor that called the cable company

If you had one of only 5 lines available for cable, you didn't pay for that line (e.g earn it with wins) and your stealing of the cable was preventing me from paying for it....I'd call.

If ULL had some special deal that didn't cost another team anything, I wouldn't care. Fine. But in this case, ULL's hogging of that line, without earning it (through on the field effort), takes 1 of 5 cable connections away from people would like to earn it. Regardless of what they do.

Again, the Belt has 5 connections. 3 have ESPN. 1 is internet only. If one team isn't paying for that connection and is keeping another person from paying for that connection, then there's a problem. And the cost to everyone else isn't marginal.
