Quite Frankly, I hate it. I agree with many around here that think
playing "MONEY GAMES" are prostituting your program. Our Athletic
Officials should find a way to make ends meet without having to accept
losses to do so. This is the easy way out, and it does not promote a
winning attitude. Basically, you need 7 wins to get to a bowl other than
the New Orleans Bowl. So why hamper those chances ? I think the Belt would be better served building Winning traditions. Rent-A-Loss games
DO NOT do so.
I do realize that on occasion, we could upset one of the Big Dogs, but
Percentages and results speak for themselves. We are doing just the opposite of SEC schools, they play a cup-cake pre-conference schedule,
and all they have to do is go 500 in conference , and they go to a Bowl
with a big payday. I do not want us to play cupcakes, but teams that
we at least have a better chance of beating. Until we realize this inequity, most of us will be sitting home come Bowl time, and losing
Fan interest. Fans want Winners. We should get rid of AD's who want
losers.
