I was looking at the standings and see this (I know, it's early) and was mildly surprised at some of the records.

But then I saw this, as one example, of a ReALLY serious OOC schedule:

Northwestern losing to Louisiana-Alexander? Is the Southland the worst conference in the country this season?

Gotta be pretty close, at least thus far. Usually the SWAC is worse but they've pulled off some really nice wins early on. Alabama State over Buzzard and Virginia Tech, Alabama A&M and Southern both over Tulane, to cite three hilarious examples.

Poor Northwestern State lost Jalan West to a torn ACL, their season has to be shot now. Certainly looks that way, although LSU-A almost beat them last year with West, and clubbed SLU by 14 back in October in an exhibition.

Yikes, and now Sam Houston loses to NAIA Wiley College. The Southland is atrocious. If UNO's not upper division this year then that's a problem.

That was one of my thoughts when I saw the standings over the weekend......but then I thought maybe I was being too optimistic.

NOW? Now I'm wondering what happened.

SFA had a chance to win over Tulane but unfortunately they failed as Tulane rallied in the final three minuets to win by one.

SFA was up 28-10 or so over Tulane in the early going. I thought that it was going to be a blowout. Shows you what I know. On another note, the Saints are going to make the playoffs! 😜
