In what world

In what world does Louisiana Tech beat Miami in a bowl game?  Not just beat them, but shut the Hurricanes completely out?

In the world where the U does not have an REC to funnel the goods.

The U has nowhere near the organized fanbase/network that Bama does. They barely have a fanbase that isn’t “bandwagon”. Check out their home attendance. Their entire program is based upon buying a roster - twice. They really should have gotten close to the death penalty for the latest infractions with Nevin Shapiro. Miami fans (the 109 real ones) need to realize that without a store bought roster in both the 80s and early 2000s - they are pretty much just nc state or wake forest historically.

Can't recall if it was last year or the year before, where Miami and Notre Dame were both undefeated going into their match up.  The absolute schlob-fest by the media over these two "traditional rivals" with their long, storied history, was F'ing laughable.  You hit the nail on the head.  The U has been relevant for two short periods of time, and both were when they were the dirtiest players in the game.

I have a historical level of hatred for that bunch of thugs and punks that dates back to the screwing Auburn got in 1983. 

That 83 Auburn team (Randy Campbell, Bo, Lionel, Tommie Agee, Fullwood, Trey Gainous, Ed West, Clayton Beauford, Chris Woods, Steve Wallace, Greg Carr, Quency Williams, Doug Smith, Donnie Humphrey, David King, Tommy Powell...)  was possibly the best group of talent ever assembled at Auburn.  In any other world, in any other year if the number one team goes down and the number two team gets destroyed by a team that the third-ranked team mauled late in the season?  The number three team will ascend to the top.  

I went to bed after Auburn beat Michigan in the Sugar Bowl absolutely secure that my Tigers had won the national title.  It was just the first of many screwings to follow, but when Miami was anointed (and first anointed by whoever was doing the broadcast of the Orange Bowl, which I thought at the time was ridiculous hyperbole) it bored a hole in my soul that has never fully recovered.  

The 1983 and 2004 Auburn teams were two of the best football teams I've ever seen. I'd take my chances with them against any college football team that ever existed. Well except the 1992 Alabama team of course. That team would beat a combination of the 1985 Bears, 1972 Dolphins and 2007 Patriots to hear folks here tell it.  

Both of those fantastic AU teams got royally raped.

And the biggest travesty of that season was that Auburn had played one of the toughest schedules ever made.  The number of teams that were undefeated and ranked in the top 10 when we played them was ridiculous.  Those included Texas, FSU, Florida, Maryland (With Boomer Esiason) and FUGA.  Check out these two stretches of games.

13 and getting drunk on Bourbon street was glorious.  The screwjob we got the next morning, not so much.
