Perhaps JT Barrett signing with the Saints had something to do with his decision to go to Philly?

Ok just turned Super Bowl on...Maybe some will disagree but I love college football and THE NATIONAL ANTHEM....Nope I do not like green eggs and ham OR the national forgettable league.... With that said I hope they get a hold of this because I am probably not the only person who feels this way. I love both as well. Did you not like Pink’s rendition of the anthem before the SB?

Did I miss something? Did CNB get hired by another program, or resign to follow his dream of being a shopping mall security guard or a Victoria Secrets photographer? Why are we talking about replacements?

I like it 1. Our Players wanted the NOLA Bowl - very happy for them and you should be to - this is for the players 2. Great destination - I know some of you don't think so but Friday and Saturday night will be fun - looking forward to some great food 3. We get to beat a C-USA team - tired of their better than us mentality - I hope we beat them by 40 4. Go and cheer us to 11 victories - yes, 11 5. Support our team and University 1. Of course it’s for the players. No argument here. 2. I think NO is overrated but if others don’t agree with me, I’m not going to think any less of them. 3. Of course I hope we win. Just think it would have been even better if it had been someone we weren’t so familiar with. Bowl season is fun for me because of the matchups of teams that don’t usually play each other OR old rivalries renewed. 4. 11 victories would be something. 5. I’ll always support our student athletes by cheering for them wherever I may be on game day. Go Trojans!

I am guessing that Troy and North Texas fans that are not happy with the match up will stay home, and watch on ESPN to make the ratings go up You mean people will stay home and watch a game on tv because they aren’t that fired up about a certain opponent? No way. Say it ain’t so. That’s never happened in the history of ever. Go Trojans!

Sorry you are not excited about us going to a bowl game. I’m sorry you can’t stop saying I said things I didn’t say. Ok

And I support Troy against the opponent we are actually playing. Neither of us control our bowl matchup. Go Trojans! Again, show me where I said I wouldn’t support the team in the bowl game. You won’t find it. There are fans of schools in bowl games all across the country who would have preferred their school have a different opponent. That doesn’t make those people any less of a fan than the rest of the fan base. Sorry you are not excited about us going to a bowl game.

Your initial point is not supporting Troy based on the opponent? You are welcome. Where did I say I wasn’t supporting Troy in the bowl game? I’ll wait for you to find it. (Here’s a hint, you won’t find it). All I said was I was hoping for a different opponent. Hoping for a different opponent does not equal disloyalty. And I support Troy against the opponent we are actually playing. Neither of us control our bowl matchup. Go Trojans!

You didn’t have the opportunity to play Kentucky or FSU in a bowl. There was an outside chance at Toledo, but Mobile really wasn’t in play. Because someone read something on a message board doesn’t make it true. That wasn’t my point and you know it. Point is, myself and many more like me would have liked a diffferent opponent instead of someone we used to play all the time and/or a bowl that offered the program a better opportunity at national exposure. I realize that’s out of our control but doesn’t change the fact that lots of us are underwhelmed by the opponent because of familiarity. So you won’t be in NoLa, got it.

Steve Campbell isn’t the coach? Hmm. Kinda like the coach we have if it's ok to say. (Tongue and cheekily) Some on here don’t want CNB as their coach

Hey guys - looking forward to the matchup in the New Orleans Bowl. Congrats on an excellent season. We know you will be a challenging opponent and it should be a good game.

We can go 11-2 ,win a bowl game in the Superdome as well as being conference champ. What's wrong here? Steve Campbell isn’t the coach?

I've never really been a fan of nola but I'm going to try and go to give it a chance. But would love to see this bowl moved to Nashville, Atl or Huntsville as someone mentioned to me recently. Worse thing other than time slot is it's the home of the aints. Where are you going to play a bowl game in Huntsville? Huntsville? Is that a real question?

If it’s good enough for this guy it’s good enough for me. A Troy fan. He didn’t even complain about the opponent. Honestly and I know it sounds contrary but I am not complaining about the opponent. As Doug said I am a Troy fan despite or in spite of the opponent. I am simply sorry that Troy was not given the greatest opportunity to promote Troy athletically and as a school in the very best way possible. A second place team from another conference in a poor time slot in a city Which can be fun but does not prioritize the bowl are simply facts not a complaint about North Texas. For a few years ago Hartwell brought a few of us together and was talking about getting a bowl maybe if we went 6-6 so in those days I was a little more focused on just enjoying the bowl game. I can still do that but the chance given Troys position this time to promote Troy is a lost opportunity given the spot we are rewarded with at this time. We will make the most of it by doing as well as possible and enjoying the fruits as they exist. Go Troy!!!! Let’s go 11-2!

I was making plans to go, and I still want to, but I have about lost my excitement for the opponent. I just don't want to play a team that we have historically dominated. (We're 8-2 against them). What was said above is true, it's about recruiting and exposure, we all know that, but it's just not an excited game, IMO. I guess you will be viewing from the house or not at all. I support the Trojans, no matter the opponent. Go Trojans!
