Basically, they were invited to the Independence Bowl, but felt they could get into the Liberty Bowl. So they turned down the Independence Bowl, but when Oklahoma got knocked out of the BCS in scuppered those plans. Now there is calls for the ousting of the Athletic Administration. |

Nobody has ever accused people of Louisiana having above average intelligence.

From what I read, USC turned down bowl games back to back years late in the 80's because the games were scheduled during exams.

i dont think its all on the a.d....evidently, the liberty assured them of a spot and then when niu made it to the bcs that changed everything.
if i am the a.d. and am told i have a slot in a bowl then i would be taking the word of the committee. |

What I'm recalling vaguely was there was a bowl bid to us prior to the navy game but we held off because we thought we would win a vault us more. I'm probably wrong it's just something that stuck in my head from somewhere.

No you're correct. I can't remember what bowl it was but they offered us prior to the Navy game. We thought we would do better and said no. We lost and ended up in the Gator.

Tech is switching conferences and thus had no backing as they were basically acting as an independant. Should have taken the first offer they had. I think the ad said the independance folks were being disingenuous to them on the phone. At least thats what tim brando said today.
