Considering UL is the flagship university of their respective system, just like the above mentioned, they would just call us Louisiana.

Oh wait................

Just put on ESPN2 and Please!

I voted for UL. We all need to be on the same page with this. I'm going to try and go back and vote Louisiana. If not at home then surely for work. It is a stupid thing for the paper to even put up there. I'm glad I didn't subscribe.

Wowwww
They must have some LSU fans voting because suddenly there are 500 votes and ULL and Louisiana Lafayette have alot of votes

Someone told the booth at halftime.
