Where was the last game with them played? If Ruston Maggard lost the negotiations on that deal. I hope we keep our momentum going until then.Quote:

2023 and 2026 UAB (Away 2023, Home 2026) not as regional as Rice and Tulane but still very doable.
Here are the other schools I would love to see us work with (not all are G5's anymore):
Houston
SMU
UTSA
UNT
TCU
Basically from East Texas area - Alabama. This makes these games much more drivable for away games and hopefully brings in a few more fans from the opponents then would, say a EMU or NMSU.
Pretty sure last time they played us was at CF, right? When Dixon busted a 99 yard TD run on us in front of all of the recruits Hud invited.
I think that is accurate.Quote:

And the hate......
There better be a big financial payoff if they decide to cancel coming to CF on the return.
This was announced quite a while back.

No, that was the first game vs. them in the HUD era. Vast majority of us were all jacked up thinking we'd open up a can after a decade or more of them talking down to us. We were wrong.Quote:

Oh yea, I suppressed the memories from that Nixon/Haack season. Forgot about that.Quote:

Glad we are playing them. Not happy we are going there first and have to wait 7 years for them to come to Lafayette. That will have been 15 years in between games in Lafayette
I thought this was done months ago???
When was the last time the Cajuns beat the Necksters?
Sometime in the 1900’s.Quote:

Pretty sure from first hand knowledge Jay Johnson wanted to play conservative and regroup at the half. Hud seemed to panic against Tech for some reason. We put together a bus trip for that one.Quote:

Well, this bites. Maggard loses having us play up there first. I don't know when we've played the nechs down here in the last 15-20 years. AND we only get 2 chances in 3 years to BEAT them, plus I'll be pushing 70 by the time these games come up!! (That's if I'm not pushing up daisies, first!!!) :mad::mad::mad:
