    BREAKING: #LATech turns down bid to Independence Bowl, will remain at home this bowl season.

    Turned down invite to stay home. What are they thinking?!?
    Which will make it that much more embarrassing if we end up going to that crap bowl in Shreveport. LA Tech declined the crappy bowl that we're going to. If it's not good enough for LA Tech, it shouldn't be good enough for us either.

    I'm still hoping for either Dallas or Memphis.

    Is it better to be the last pick, or to be shut out?

    I don't understand why they would do this. They would have hardly had any traveling expenses and they would have played in a crappy bowl anyways if they didn't play in the Independence.

    I wonder how many B1G, SEC and ACC voters in the coaches polls jumped NIU way up to deny the Big XII from getting two teams?

    Re: ***Official What Bowl Are We Going To Thread***

    LMU is not turning it down because it is a bad bowl. It is because it is a rival school.
    "He is the toughest I have ever been around, physically and mentally," Burnham said. "You can beat him down but you’re not going to beat him out. He’s got the mindset of, ‘If you’re going to get me out of this game, you’re going to have to kill me.’ That’s about where he is."
