ESPN Blurb about the SBC
"Long considered the whipping boy of Division I-A/FBS, the Sun Belt has come into its own lately…"
Um, huh? The Sun Belt had two teams finish above .500 last year and only its champion – Florida Atlantic (a team I like to win eight games again this season) – went to a bowl. Yes, Louisiana-Monroe beat Alabama, but does that give the whole conference credibility?
I will say the Sun Belt is underrated as one of the top rushing conferences in the country. If you look at the stats, the Sun Belt had four 1,000-yard rushers last season.
GO OWLS!!!

Re: ESPN Blurb about the SBC
It create inconsistent play for the most part and why most will always be middle of the pack teams and when things to falls into place they can beat anyone.
What is sad, Louisiana-Lafayette had two of those 1,000 yard rushers last year (and possibly again this year)
and where ranked seventh national in rushing yard and still manage to finish with a 3-4 record in the belt and 3-9 overall.
With that type of rushing attack, it should translate to more W's and if you have two 1,000 yards rushers and still can't win :-X
