LaTech AD screws the pooch

[MrTitleist]

This is a really interesting story.. Louisiana Tech's AD turned down a bowl bid in hopes of getting a better bid.. but instead they didn't get any bowl. Kind of a tragedy, the AD should probably be removed for this debacle.

Actually, from what I;ve been gathering, La Tech was holding out, than OU didn't get their at-large bid, which bumped everyone else down a spot, making La Tech lose any shot at going to the Indy bowl.

Though, a 9 win team gets screwed over by a 6-6 team. Seen that one before, like with us in 1996.

Georgia Tech is in a bowl game as a 6-7 team.

Just like POS UCLA last year. WKU had 8 wins and were screwed as well.

I have no problem w/ GT getting in. LA tech is so dumb! They didn't want to play a rival in a bowl game? I can't think of a better scenario, those players ought to be so pissed!!!!! Fire that AD

So many teams get screwed every year all because of the SEC/ACC/B10/P12 get dibs on everything and w/e is left goes to the shitty teams in those conferences. Than when all is said and done all the 75% win teams in small conferences get into the shit bowls.

It's the same BS every year and when AQ is gone it won't change it will still be the exact same BS.
