3 Losses by 9pts to So Miss, Houston, and Miss St....But great win by ULL Saturday Hendo. Didn't see that coming.

Those were close games but La. Tech's schedule has not been "brutal."
You cannot say they are undoubtedly the second best team when their best and only win came against Central Arkansas.

Like I said, they may win put from here so we will see. I just think you are looking too much into the record.

Houston and Southern Miss are both borderline top 25 teams
houston is MAYBE about the 40th best team in the country and Southern Miss is prob around 60
quote:no. they are not
Mississippi State is a top 25 team.

I'm not saying they won't have a good season or that they haven't done well in close games, but you can't say they're undoubtedly better when they're 1-3

Yep, ULM's losses:
at Florida State
at TCU
at Iowa
At least we're getting some checks.

I guess we'll see rankings at this point are pointless anyways

Southen Miss and Houston were both in e receiving votes when we played them
Posted on 9/26/11 at 12:45 pm to msutiger
FIU was receiving top 25 votes when we beat them

Receiving 2 25th place votes, doesn't make you a "borderline top 25 team".

While I will generally regard Tech as the second best team in the state the past 5 years I think the Cajuns have them this year.

Louisiana Tech has played a brutal schedule

Looking at the numbers I would say ULM has teh best defense while ULL has the best offense.
Monroe is giving up 31ppg against FSU,TCU,Iowa whereas Tech is giving up 30.5 against USM,Hou,MSU and ULL is giving up 31.25 against OSU,FIU,NSU.

Like I said, I think tech is a better team but we are gonna have to wait and see

Brutal schedule is stretching it, right now I would say those rankings are about right, we got credit for being competitive in all our games but fact is we could not close out the games and lost.
With better weather I think we beat Southern Miss., but you have to play in what you get that day. We blew the other two by not finishing the game out.
Right now, through September, I would put us as third in the state. This is just the second year back in an air raid offense and we have a 17 year old QB so we should continually get better throughout the season. With Boise gone and Nevada not having a replacement for Kapernick (sp?) we have a chance to rack up some wins in conference but we have to learn how to finish games first.

Better team based on what? What leads you to believe that Tech is better then ULL or even ULM for that matter?
Posted on 9/26/11 at 1:56 pm to CajunFootball
It's not just the final fricking score you dumbfrick
You haven't watchd tech play a snap this year so you have no idea what you are talking about.
They way they played against these teams that were supposed to blow them out is what sticks out. This isn't LSU where the only thing you care about is the outcome. Was it disappointing they lost to state, well yeah but they were a 20 point underdog and took it to ot

I mean your're right...We don't have any room to talk. We're 1-3.....I guess just watching the past two weeks and observing all teams on TV. I don't believe ULM or ULL would be within a point of beating Houston. And I certainly don't think either would take Miss St to overtime. Like we stated 3 losses by 9pts to teams that would more than likely beat ULL/ULM pretty good IMO. But we're 1-3 so it really doesn't matter, we can't have an opinion with that record....I really was impressed with ULL this weekend, after watching the Nichols game, I didn't think you guys would be close with FIU
