Tuco Ramirez Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 I don’t mind this. It can help with recruiting in Louisiana. I wouldn’t mind playing Maryland and Cal again. We need our revenge. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marathon Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 (edited) 48 minutes ago, JMarquette said: We’re truly an SEC school now First off we recruit Louisiana. Secondly, they haven’t been good the last 4 seasons but from 2014-2020 they went to 7 bowl games to our 5. They had as many 10 wins seasons as us (one). Plus they had four 9 win seasons (we had none). They had no losing records and we had 3. Third, the SEC has won 4 of the last 5 NC. Maybe we can learn something instead of always thinking we are better than everyone else. We haven’t won a NC in 20 years.

Trust me, I don't think we are better than everyone else, I was at UT during the Strong/Herman years, I know how bad it can get, this has been a breath of fresh air. We are clearly benefitting from being in the SEC considering a big selling point of recruiting is being in the SEC. Second, my joke was probably not in the best taste, but I hope we don't do the traditional SEC non-conference schedule and continue to schedule marquee matchups because it's good for the brand, good for recruiting, and good for the sport in general.

horns96 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 How does a home game against LaTech help Lousiana recruiting? I'd prefer a home and home with Tulane again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

closetojumping Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 I assume there’s going to be a big OOC home and home in 2028/2029 to replace the prior set up with Georgia or Florida or whoever it was. I’m assuming a Big 10 team or Notre Dame, plus La Tech and UTSA and 9 SEC games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
