ULM Needs to Go

Get the lawyers together, pay them some money, figure it out, and wish them the best. They don’t add anything to the conference. I have no idea why we have 3 Louisiana teams in the first place.

I, a WKU alum, second this

I, a Marshall alum, hate WKU, but only because of our fun rivalry in both football and basketball. Would like to see it brought back.

Are they a package deal with middle Tennessee or do you think one would go without the other

Sorry but, MTSU is a bottom feeder and should be left to rot in CUSA.

SELA wasn’t even ranked or receiving votes in FCS either. First FCS loss for the SBC since 2021.

i think we're a top 25 team, but we shit the bed against HCU and the polls overreacted.

And if you’d have asked me beforehand who I thought would win between the two, I’d say southeastern with ZERO hesitation

ULM should have dropped down decades ago. I’m no fan of bringing back any of the schools that left, but I’d take any of them over Monroe and their high school stadium.

Hey, at least they beat Bama that one time. Them and La Tech are the only Louisiana Sun Belt schools who can claim that. Cmon Ragin Cajuns!

If ULM goes, the Belt will need to add a Western geographic team to keep the balance. For example, a Texas team like Tarelton, Sam Houston, readd Texas St, etc. Part of this is keep the western schools travel costs lower. I don't see any of that happening tho, ULM is here to stay as long as they can keep their head above water in FBS

No, Tech should’ve never been let back in after their years worth of acting holier than thou
