Game Thread (Louisiana vs Boise St)

I know Boise fans were ____ed at the time slot because they are calling it a "breakfast" game. Then after about 20 posts in a guy chimes in who is a Boise fan but grew up in the South explained to them how the heat and humidity will feel. They really don't have a clue how heavy it can be. With that being said though....it is football, so regardless of temps, rain, snow, etc., let's line up and knock the snot outta people.

Eff the B.S.

Cajuns 37
Boise 33

Cajuns combined rushing yards = 300+
Eli - 140-150 yrds
AJ/JD - 85-100 yrds
Wright - 40-50 yrds
Calais/Hoggins - 40-50 yrds

now its football season...Geaux Cajuns!

Unless we improve dramatically on defense from last year, I am afraid this game will essentially be over by halftime, regardless of who is under center.

Kinda like Sean Payton said...it would be almost hard not to improve on defense

I think our defense will be top 3 in the Belch this year. Got a good feeling that the ball bounces our way this year. Turn 11 total turnovers into something like 25. That alone will give us at least a 3 game swing from last year.

Like Crazy and Sean P said.......no where to go but up huh?

Get out there for a little tailgate if you like that kind of thing. Watch the game from 11-2'ish then you have all afternoon for more football, dinner, kids stuff, etc. I think the heat will only deter a small group of people (families with babies and elderly).

With that being said, I'm going with 29,000 fans. If the weather guys make their normal misdiagnosed monsoon forecast, we'll have 19,000.

I think the Cajuns can hang with this team if we can move it early.

First game, AJ behind center, big name school and school pride would be reasons for me to attend at 11:00 (or any time of day the Cajuns play). The reasons why I couldn't make it...kid's soccer games.

Mr. B, for the first time in a long time, I think the defense will be a strength.

On a serious note. What do you think the crowd will be like at 11am and what would you say if it were at 6.

I'll go with 20k'ish at 11 and if it were at 6 around 30k. I think the time will have a big effect on the crowd which is a shame.

30K, but only 20K count because it's Cajun Field.

22k inside and another 8k outside huddled around misting fans
