If there is one thing I have learned throughout this whole "adding" scenario to the CUSA tiebreaker rule, it is that there is absolutely no transparency in CUSA. Here is the quote I received from CUSA when asking about the tiebreaker change: (you have to love the wording here)

Here is what i an told and will quote it for you so there is clarity (or am much as clarity as we will get)
The key word for me is adding, which, to me, means the rule was changed. Gotta love CUSA. I also asked if the vote was majority or unanimou, i have not got an answer about that. When I do I will update.

On Monday, our Athletics Directors clarified the “Two-team or multiple team tie for divisional champion” by adding “Highest average computer ranking” following “Highest CFP Ranking.”

is something I can't get off my mind. He said that he went for 3 instead of going for a TD with 4 min left because he was thinking about point differential and winning a championship. So OK, he didn't know how the tie breakers work, but shouldn't that be a contingency that you consider the whole week? This is what GA's are for!!!

We always talk about the team is getting better and more talented every year, and I do agree with that. Here is the question I put towards you all. We saw Fedora grow as a coach every year, IMO Monken grew as a coach every year, but has Hopson grown as a coach since he first arrived? Just like a team must get better, so must the coaches. I would love to hear you guy's thoughts.

I've been an Eagle fan since graduating in 1970 and can't remember ever hearing one of our coaches talk, after a loss, about the other team getting all of the breaks. I may be wrong, but I really can't recall hearing any coach from any other school speak of the other team getting all of the breaks. Of course, I may be wrong, but the truth is we got our asses kicked.

I urge everyone to go online at http://cspireconerlyvoting.hcampaigns.com and vote for Jack Abraham for this award. Let's give Jack a good vote. I believe you can vote once a day and I have. We all should.

I think it is clear he voted against this.

“I was made aware of concerns regarding the C-USA division tie-breaker on Monday. While the adjustments are well-intentioned and reasonable, I expressed serious concerns over the timing of the changes on our conference call, and we were outvoted by the league’s membership. Our focus is now on moving forward and supporting our football student-athletes in a big game on Saturday.”

We got to get out of this conference. And go where?

Even though we were out schemed & out coached last night didn’t it seem like they were exponentially more talented than us too? Their lines looked big and their defense was nasty. Just my thought.

Can someone explain the rules change in the tie breaker? Looks like it negatively impacted us this weekend....not that we were going to win either way

How badly hurt do we think Jack is?

Since we cannot expect much communication from the athletics dept., any good speculation to draw from?

Heath, good evening. Quick question: have you requested a meeting with the new AD to discuss the current state of the football program? I’m interested in the following:

1. Is he content with Hop or would he say we expect to win & win big here?
2. What are his thoughts on our poor attendance the last 3 home games?
3. Would he give us the fans the value That we need to increase our giving to become more competitive with other G5 programs in regards to coaching salaries?

Hopefully, games like this will help the team sort out roles and team chemistry.

Since the promise Jay Hopson showed Southern Miss in his initial 2016 season, the Golden Eagles have been awaiting more than a winning record and a simple bowl selection.

and our classes are back to where they need to be for the first time in ten years probably. If we can add another good recruiting year I think it will show up on the field. For that reason I am for giving Hop another year. But it would be really nice to win Saturday

Just a few years ago if we had to play our third string Linebackers a majority of the game we would have gotten beat 48-0. I thought Maples really stepped up and will continue to improve.

On this week's episode of To The Top Talk presented by 4th Street Bar, we visit with former Golden Eagle offensive lineman, Joe Duhon. #SMTTT

If La Tech, UAB and USM wins... Eagles win West
If La Tech and UAB loses and USM loses... Eagles win
If La Tech Loses UAB wins, Eagles win, USM wins West
If La Tech wins , UAB loses and Eagles win, La Tech wins

So Eagles have to root for UAB to win next week.
Or root against both La Tech and UAB.

Yesterday out of frustration at the inept play calling I hollered “Turn the page Whitey”...my apologies to Whitey or his memory if no longer with us.

That was tough to take.
