I think we have the 4th best bowl winning percentage of all time.

Why don't you sort by bowl appearances instead? After all, playing in a bowl and losing is better than not playing in a bowl at all.
Feel free to also notate the number of "major" bowl appearances, such as BCS bowls or Cotton Pre-1990.
I'll wait

Not that hard to get a good record playing all your bowls in the Music City, BBVA Compass, Motor City, Liberty, and Independence Bowls.

When you're playing shitty teams like Georgia Tech and Rice it's easy to boost up the bowl record.

LSU is 2-3 the last 5 years in Bowls.
3-3 the last 6.
You know what else is 3-3 in the last 6 years?
LSU's record vs Ole Miss.

I mean...he's right. Not that having a bowl eligible season and winning a bowl is not a fun/solid season, but it's not like you generally end up playing anyone great.

You're telling me the University of Louisiana's bowl record is better than ULSUA&M, BR's?

I really can't explain our bad bowl history. We've lost to UNLV of all teams in a bowl game. Pretty much every coach we've had has struggled in bowls

It's not clever when cajuns try it, and it's not clever when you try it.

The go to excuse on the rant seems to be the players felt that the bowl was beneath them and thus weren't "up for the game."
So, by tRant's standards, Arky must be #1
