What if you could choose who would be the Sun Belt champ, but it could NOT be your team? Who would you choose for the sake of "what's best for the conference"? Who would you choose for other personal reasons?

For the sake of the conference: I'd say MT because I think it's probably best for the conference for one of our higher profile teams to continue garnering the press.

For other personal reasons: I'd go with ULM. I hate that our conference mate is so disrespected by such vile unworthy neighbors. I might even help pay for the championship billboards in Monroe if that happened.

ASU

What's up with you Trojan folks today ? Off your meds ? Bored ? First someone wanted to know what others think of Troy football and now this. What next ?

Ah just bored in the middle of the week and thought it'd be a good non-homer thread.

North Texas, they have a good fan base and starting next year they'll have the best stadium in the belt, which looks good for our conference.

I would pick Troy for the exact same reasons you picked MT.

I would think if you boys wanted to actually put some serious folks in the Superdome....weeeell.....you know who should be there.

trojans 664, I am truly sorry that your buddies in funroe, LA get harassed... we'll try to be nicer next time...

WKU for the same reasons applied to Troy and MT.

They've got the name in the conference.

But, I hope for WKU to rise to the top of the conference in this scenario. Not for the conference to drop below WKU.

anyone but FIU is okay by me.

I don't know a single soul personally from Monroe, but they seem like good people. The human spirit makes you pull for good people. The old good over evil theme you know. If I did meet someone from Tech, I regretfully admit that I'd immediately have a less than satisfactory attitude toward them based on the online attitude from Ruston. Oh well.

If UNT already had their new stadium, I would say them, but right now I would pick MT for the same reasons listed above (the only reason I didn't pick Troy is because they've won it so many times recently.)

Troy - Along with MT, they're the best team, and the most likely to win the Bowl game and put up 9/10 win type season. We need someone (preferably 2 or 3 teams) to put up some big seasons back to back to continue to progress. Parity is great, but for the sake of growing a conference's rep, we need 1 or 2 big dogs to dominate in and out of conference.

My second favorite 'Belt team is ULL, so I wouldn't mind them winning it either.

Troy and MT posters love to wrestle in the sandbox during recess, but also have a tendancy to get all kissy face with each other.:band:

I'd have to agree with others on it being one of the higher profile teams. Maybe MT, as long as we keep that streak of beating them going! FAU gets a lot of recognition just for having Schnelly as the coach, and they did beat UAB, so that's a win over another mid-major.

respecting success and getting "kissy face" are two totally different things. I appreciate the fact their team has joined us at the top, but they are the bad guys and I think they know that.

Either FIU or FAU. Probably FAU.

I would go with Troy for the same reasons mentioned above. My other pick would be UNT. I would like to see them get back to being competitive in the conference like they used to be.

I would pick North Texas. UNT and Troy don't recruit the same players...
