FAU vs UL not as "compelling" as FIU vs Troy...

Post

So the Sun Belt announced thier "wild card" game for the 13th of November…guess who??

FIU @ Troy.

So, considering 4 out of 5 of thier games will have been featured by the time November 13th rolls along, what's with the FIU lovefest on the Sun Belt Network this season??

Oct 09  WKU  Sun Belt Network
Oct 16  North Texas  Sun Belt Network
Oct 30  Florida Atlantic  None
Nov 06  ULM  Sun Belt Network
Nov 13  Troy  Sun Belt Network

The league says "The 'Wild Card' selections…are designed to feature the most compelling game scheduled."

We play UL on the 13th, and guess that is not as "compelling" as watching a team we just beat go up against another that just lost to ULM for the thrid straight time at thier place.

prob got nothing to do with FIU and more to do with Troy. They obviously think Troy is winning the conference again

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

I just hope TROY beats the $%&&* out of them, so they can learn to shut up and stop talking cr@p about our school.
In the meantime, FAU must win against WKU.

FIU vs Troy DOES have potential SunBelt Confrence championship implications still.

WKU vs FAU does not.

I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick @$$ and I'm out of bubble gum.

To play deveil's advocate:

UNT vs FIU have any implications??

How about FIU vs WKU??

The point is, they will be on 4/5 straight games.

Just for the record, Troy will travel here.

If we beat them and win out, we are in it…….

But, i get it…they want to roll the dice on Troy…that's fine.

I see your point Rick, but with the sucess that Troy has had in the Sun Belt and the sucess they have had vs. us (5-1 I think) they should assume Troy will take it.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

Here is my take on it:

Oct 09   WKU  Sun Belt Network  - billed as: who will be the last to get a win for the season? (compelling)
Oct 16   North Texas  Sun Belt Network - billed as: Tod Dodge last stand? (very compelling)
Oct 30   Florida Atlantic  None - billed as: will the panthers try to get the trophy? (who really wants to see the hooters beat FIU … again?  >:()
Nov 06   ULM  Sun Belt Network - billed as: Potential conference champ elimination (compelling)
Nov 13   Troy  Sun Belt Network -  billed as: Potential conference champ elimination (very compelling)

The hilltoppers appeal was the losing streak. Now that it has ended they are just another 'belt team.
