Louisiana Tech has not won less than 7 games in a full season since 2014. Other CUSA programs that can state the same: None.
I understand that bowl games don’t carry the significance that they once did to most folks, but here is a list of teams in Conference USA that will go to 5 straight bowls like Tech can say they will: None.
The one missing element is the Conference USA Championship, but I ask you, is Skip Holtz fulfilling his promise of building a consistent winner year in and year out while competing for Conference Championships?
