Hopefully the defending SWAC Champions and winners of the 1st and last SCG will have resolved those issues by then.

I doubt they would be banned. APR and other bans only relate to NCAA post season.. not conference sponsored events so who knows what the Presidents will decide.

But .. SU won't be going. Their road to Houston won't be easy. The only thing going in their favor is that they are in the same division with Grambling, TxSo and UAPB.

We're kicking all of your behinds next year. Hear me now and believe me later. I look for Alcorn, AAMU and PV to give us a little resistance. I suspect Alcorn or AAMU will play against S.U. in the Championship game........I am leaning towards Alcorn being our opponent though.

West

1) S.U.
2) PV
3) UAPB
4) Gram
5) TXSU

East

1) Alcorn St.
2T) AAMU
2T) Bama St.
4) MVSU (dark horse)
5) jsu

SU, on paper, SU will lose to EVERY East team. You do stand a chance to beat some of the West teams. But JSU, AAMU, BAMA State, Alcorn and possibly Valley will be way too much for you to handle.

Why do you believe The Wicked West is 11-3 vs. the east oh logical one? :lol: :emlaugh: (that's a .272 championship winning percentag I might add)
 
Tigerpride said:
Well Southern won't compete for the WEST this year. Too many teams have made upgrades, and they will spend the whole year chasing PV after the early season loss to PV in Houston. Remember, SU does not have a QB so a shoot-out with PV won't be pretty.

SU is better at every position except maybe QB. Once Shorts gets playing experience it's OVA :)

I admit that is a horrible stat and very misleading. The WEST has been very bad for a very long time. The EAST was not as strong as expected last year but I think with the experience both ASUs return, a real coaching staff in Jackson and new energy at both Valley and AAMU, the EAST will take it up a notch. You can't deny that. In the West, you have new energy at Grambling and PV got a patch for the defense to match what could be the conferences top offense but the rest of the WEST (SU, TxSo, UAPB) made no noteworthy improvements. You all act like SU didn't just fall into Houston. You stuggeled with or lost to PV, Alcorn, JSU, AAMU, AlaState, UAPB and Valley. Don't expect to get lucky wins this time around without Dray and Lee.

How do you know this will happen on the field? You have no stable throwing QB, you have no running game that's been proven, your run defense and DB's were torched time and time again, so where's the proof?
If PV gets half the defense they didn't have last year and if PB gets those players back they didn't have, su is a good third place finish.

They claim to have WR's better than Lee but I'm trying to figure out who'll get them the ball.

What about how bad your defense was? It's amazing how blind you all are to some things. That team last year was just bad. JSU realized our faults and fixed it. Ya'll are just bringing back a bad team and coaching staff. ...and you can't even buy your HC out.

If that defense pick up where they left off at the end of next season, S.U. will be hard to beat. Like SUjagTiliDie stated, the offense is loaded. One of the best games that S.U. played last year was without our senior star receiver. That QB spreads the ball around that passing attack is going to be lethal and will open up the running game. The big boys in the trenches will have to protect him but they are good enough to do that.....

You basically hijacked your own thread off the bat, Pham. LOL. Don't take things so seriously. Now there will never be a legit discussion in this thread.

Tandy, actually I read it and of course, my interpretation of it was a bit of a slant or bias if you will. And how could the discussion be legit given the past history of SU vs JSU on this board and everywhere else? :lol:

Y'all really don't know what SU has huh :)

Nope. Some do. But TP is just being TP. LOL. We will have to prove it on the field. That's why they play the games.

But if anyone was really paying serious attention to WHO was doing what for SU last season then they would not be saying we have nothing coming back. Hell Doss wasn't even the leading WR in the SCG. The last few games he got out shined by the youngsters.
 
The same defense that only allowed us 14 points in Mumford allowed 33 in Houston .... and they are talking about OUR defense?

That game being in late October is a blessing in disguise for them ....

yep,and beat y'all

The difference is.. we SAW that we lost to a bad team and we reacted. We saw that we struggled with bad teams all year ..and we reacted. You have a bad team and you did nothing about it but give a bad HC a contract extension.
