The history of these games indicate we will have a very long season. Hope Bustle understands that what was does not have to be what will be. He is the first UL coach that has been given a real shot to move forward by the administration. He has a lot of baggage to change.
I really hope something is worked out with Minnesota to put off going there until 2004 so that we can play Utah State either there or here it does not matter. I think at this time 3 BCS teams on the schedule (USC, OSU & Minnesota) is too much for our very young team. In another thread I started it shows how we played much better against these type teams in 2002 than 2001 but we payed the price for these tough early season games when conference play came around we had no gas in the tank. I don't think we should run from anyone but it is suicide to keep scheduling like this. Hopefully it will change with the 2004 schedule, i.e. more MAC, WAC & C-USA teams than BCS teams. If we can change the Minnesota game to Utah State, we then have 7 conference games, 2 BCS games and 3 Non-BCS 1-A team games. A much more reasonable schedule, one that gives our team a tough test but also a chance to succeed. :D
Some dates I gathered off of other sites. * indicates the date is off of the teams official athletic website.
08/30 @ South Carolina*
09/06 Louisiana Tech
09/13 @ Idaho
09/20 @ Minnesota*
10/11 ULM
11/15 Middle Tennessee

Bring 'em on!! Remember.....There's a new sheriff in town!
I think we'll go 6-5 with a surprise win infront of a large crowd in the opener vs La Tech. (Tech fans go home happy though because they were able to get some good food and buy some booze in Lafayette) :D :D :D :D :D :D
(the smiles indicate the Tech fans going home with booze)

. . . at the go home happy part not the win. I like the win.
WOW!! Three straight home games, then three straight road games to end the season!?! MAN, that's going to be BRUTAL!!!! :eek:
Jack, what I posted above is a little misleading the whole schedule is not in order yet. Only the first 4
08/30 @ USC
09/06 LaTech
09/13 @ Idaho
09/20 @ Minnesota
are fairly certain. The rest I do not know about they just happen to be put in that order. I will update this as soon as I hear some more dates.
Well, I guess I can breathe a LITTLE sigh right now...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! :p
What type of defense will the Cajuns run next year? Will the Jucos that Bustle is bringing in probably start or will they be there primarily for depth? Will any of the freshman that redshirted crack the two deeps?
