I'm excited too, but be careful about those projections: we had our half of C-USA there for the taking last year before Marshall ended that dream.

I meant in the last two years, but yeah it has been really 25 years though.

I'm just glad that we are on our way.

Does anyone know the financial package the school would get for the Liberty Bowl?

CUSA pools all bowl game money and distributes it evenly to its members.

Does that include the TV money?

Could have used Moore for that one, Thomas got picked on several times. Just couldn't get a stop in that game.

I was at that game. Marshall was bigger and stronger and simply overpowered us. I believe we have closed much of that gap. Still a 5' 8" CB has certain liabilities. Hope Moore can stay reasonably healthy the rest of the year.

Marshall feeds off home field...pretty good fans up there...not that there is anything else to do
If last years game is at home we win...like we will this year...

And Mark Schlabach doesn't even list us in any bowl. He has UTEP in a bowl but not us! So one expert has us winning it all and the other doesn't even think we will be bowl eligible.
