Normally I'd never enjoy a La.Tech win but this one... is SWEET.

The frickin Liberty Bowl has refused to release ANY CUSA team from consideration. CUSA has six eligible teams and it is VERY obvious they aren't going to take Houston or USM and a slim chance they are considering UTEP. The GMAC has the second pick of CUSA but cannot invite or talk to any team not released. If CUSA would just release those three if GMAC was ready to pick one of them they could issue the invite and Hawaii, Ft.Worth and New Orleans could start fighting for the other two or start thinking about options.

Instead CUSA has jacked around the other bowls.

Well Liberty Bowl... YOU JUST GOT JACKED!

Arkst any idea who will be going to bowl to face you guys?

CUSA really, really wants the New Orleans Bowl to take Houston. Given that Houston took about 500 to Cajun Field this year for the Tulane game (counting the band, but to be fair part of I-10 was closed) and given that they took an estimated 1,000 to 2,000 to Lafayette for the ULL game in 2003, the bowl wants NOTHING to do with them. My sense is that the bowl's preference is 1. Memphis, 2. USM, 3. Tulsa. My sense is that they do not believe there is any chance that UTEP or UCF will be available for the game.

Both USM and Tulsa seem like they would be excellent picks. I've been saying it all year but Tulsa has a hell of a team. It would be intresting to see how yall would fare against them. USM would bring more I would think.

My guess, for what it is worth is that if UCF wins the CUSA title game that GMAC and Ft. Worth will end up with UTEP and USM (your guess as good as mine as to which goes where) and Hawaii and New Orleans end up with Memphis and Tulsa (again your guess as good as mine as to who goes where). Houston stays home.

Now if CUSA successfully places team in a non-CUSA bowl, then Houston goes to the New Orleans.

If Tulsa wins the title game, I think Liberty might snag Memphis and then it gets weird.
