Officially Underdogs to ULL

Opening is ULL -1. Interested to see how much it moves in three days. It’s already down to -3.

Love being the dog. It’s worked very well over the years.

Vegas Insider opened with APP -2.

5 point move in one day on public opinion. It's like we have players sitting out in key positions for that type of move.

The first move was the sharp money yesterday which moved it to ULL -1, which is troubling. The subsequent move to ULL -3 is public money, not as troubling.

This likely means the computers are saying the game is a push, which I believe it will be as it will come down to turnovers and 1-2 plays.

Glad we are the underdog. We play well when we are the underdog against G5 schools, just look at last year's bowl game for the most recent example. Although I respect UL and feel they have a good team (great RB), I think this becomes a statement game for us. Looking for a big win on the road on national television.

Seeing +1 now, so it's all home field advantage. At home wed be favored by 2. I like it, technically underdogs but only bc we are away.

Here is the thing though. We have fans so worried about where we are ranked. If we are a top 25 caliber team this game should not be a 1-2 play or 1 turnover difference. A top 25 caliber team would beat ULL by 10-20 points for sure. So if we do lose or only beat them by a FG then I hope our fans so worried about rankings will shut up. If we are worthy of a ranking then this game won't be as close as people think.

We're worried about where we are ranked because perception becomes reality in this sport. Being in the top 25 helps recruiting. It helps us get in to a better bowl. It helps build our case for maybe one day getting into the AAC. The exposure from being ranked is absolutely massive for a G5 school trying to build and establish a brand.

Also, we're just having fun discussing the idea. Every poster on this board could completely forget that we play Wednesday and it wouldn't affect the outcome of the game at all

Why is the AAC a goal for some people? For App, or anyone else to get an invitation, would mean a combination of teams like Houston, UCF, Memphis, or Cincy have moved on. If that is the case, are they left to be a better conference?

Agreed, if we're a top 25 team we should win by a least 10. Otherwise, end of discussion.

If we’re a top 25 team we go get a road win no matter what it looks like or how big we win and then turn our attention to the next one.

Nice back peddle. Then why are you even bothering to post? The opponent is what matters. Period. The endless screaming about being ranked is played out

The endless lecturing about "focusing on the upcoming opponent" is far more played out than this is. If you don't want to discuss rankings, than just don't discuss them. There's no need to try to tell the rest of us what we can and can't discuss
