I think we are definitely in the NOB unless we just self destruct especially if Tulane is a candidate.

This is new territory for us but it a long way to go.
I think the NO bowl has to take the SBC champ this year.
There is no longer the 2/4 rule. The NO Bowl can take any team that it wants that is bowl eligible from the SBC.

If Troy gets bowl eligible I'll bet the godaddy bowl would grab us up over any other conference team not named south alabama.

^ this. Terms of the contract between the NO Bowl and SBC conference were renegotiated. I already have my hotel room booked.

Depends. I think ASU and Texas State could both get the invite if they go on a run to finish the year. Otherwise, Its the Trojans to lose obviously.

No need to even Lobby. If Texas State went on a run, it would involve beating Troy, which would likely leave you guys 6-6 at best.

Take a look at the projected records in that scenario. ASU would be 7-5 at best. USA and Troy would likely be 6-6. WKU is leaving and not getting an invite.
In that plausible scenario, they would have next to no competition

The only plausible scenario I like has ASU going 8-4 and Troy finishing 6-6.
All others just stink in my eyes.

RE: Thank You Coach Blakeney!
I know I'm late to the party, but dang Cajuns...ya'll are the only Sun Belt fanbase who can take a quote and twist it like that...and you guys like to do it.
I don't think Larry was thinking anything about Louisiana at that moment, he had fans to rally for our VERY important Thursday night game.
If your team needs this Blakeney quote to get fired up for Troy coming to town, ya'll have more problems than anyone else in the League.
P.S. UL deserves their due respect and I give it, but Troy won 5 strait...we deserve OUR respect too.
EDIT: This thread looks like it may end up in the Smack Forum very soon.

RE: Thank You Coach Blakeney!
I love the double standard working here. It won't help Troy "one bit," but it'll turn the Cajun players in to motivated super men.

If someone misinterprets a quote, and that misinterpretation causes that person to become angry and hurt people...society usually scolds that somebody. Just saying.
