No offense to the Cajuns, but GOOD.

It's time that bowl learned its lesson about passing on the more deserving SBC team. It's better for the conference.

Why don't you go whip toledo's ass, that is what is good for the conference.
Will do. We have a proven track record when it comes to Smacking the MAC.

Where was that game played?
The Superdome, prior to Tulane's new stadium opening in 2014.

Negative. Look at the Mercedes Benz logo. Clearly post Katrina.

In fact, one poster said it was the year before they moved to their new on campus soccer stadium.

With OPEC agreeing to cut production and other foreign countries, unless Trump reduces regulation that allows for American producers to increase production, more jobs will likely be lost in places outside of Louisiana as well. Meanwhile, the cost of everything will go up and those with money invested in foreign oil will once again be fat and happy.

Regulation has little to nothing to do with it, aside from the moratorium on offshore drilling. You can BP and Halliburton to thank for that. Regulation is the easy partisan excuse. Oil prices are the real reason. Once they go back up regulation won't matter. Oil companies will make money over fist. The downstream segment is much more regulated than upstream or midstream and they do fine. Maybe this time the guys int he oil fields will remember that oil is boom and bust and save some for the bust. I get tired of going to oil sites and listening to guys brag about the cars and houses they buy. Only to complain when the oil price drops. I remember a couple 20 something year olds bragging bragging about the Bentleys they bought. I just shook my head as I looked at the price of oil and was thinking I hope you have an egg because next year this is gone. This isn't a slam on all the work in that market, I work in it too and know a ton of people that do. It just frustrates me to see people the blow their six figure salary like it'll last forever and then whine when it's gone and they didn't save.

If you think that the new regulations imposed on offshore operations (Drilling & Production) has not contributed significantly to this crisis, you either have your head in the sand or are just ill informed. After the Macando oil spill the new regulations completely changed the way companies have to do business. The problem is that the oil spill was not caused due to lack of regulations, it was caused by PEOPLE making bad decisions. Even with all the new regulations, if PEOLPLE don't do what they are supposed to do, bad things can happen. Therefore, the cost of doing business with oil prices at the level it has been at for the past 2 years, along with the added cost of compliance with the new regulations has put many companies out of business and certainly put a major strain on those that are barely alive.

90 percent of this thread belongs in the spin room.

Lets talk about the Nola Bowl. I'd prefer we actually talk about the game, because even if a team brings 70,000 to the game, and they friggin' lose it, no one will care about how many people are brought to the game.

Looks like this thread is 90 percent whining by people screeching about politics.

LOL. I stand by every comment I've made on these threads.

Please stop whining. You guys got everything you wanted out of the election and the bowl process. Why are you guys still so mad? Here's my advice.... Go sell 20,000 tickets to the game through your ticket office, go win the damn game, and then make everything you don't like better. Again, you got what you wanted. Now go do something productive with it.

I'd rather we focus on the actual game between the USM Golden Eagles and the ULL Ragin Cajuns, and after the game, a full and frank discussion of how the Belt's three ESPN Bowl participants are determined.
