To be fair, conference aside, the Independence Bowl is kind of a slap in the face to a 9-3 team. Hell, we only had to go 6-6 to get there a few years ago.
Granted, it used to be an SEC tie-in bowl.

I can't blame NIU, I blame the Big East and Big Ten for sucking so bad and the voters who were dumb enough to vote them that high.

La-Tech and ULM are only separated by about 35 miles and La-Tech wants "separation" from ULM and thinks it is superior to ULM in every way. They fear that scheduling and losing to ULM validates them more and they will lose more than just the game. They do not schedule ULM in most sports and has stated in the past that they wouldn't accept a bowl to play ULM. The La-Tech administration has a history of making terrible decisions and they all have a very big arrogance to them. If you knew more about them you will understand this thought... I absolutely hate it for the players and coaches, but it couldn't happen to a more snobby, arrogant bunch.

That is pathetic. Protecting one's own mediocrity. They do know that people outside of LA already consider LA-Tech and ULM on the same plane, right? I guess not...

Yep..that's basically what I heard. Moronic decision by the AD. Those players earned a bowl game.

Exactly. A lot of the time I forget the difference between ULM, La Tech, and La Lafayette.

If you line those three schools up every year and ask people to rank them, I think most would just give you a blank stare.
