The POA put out almost zero effort at halftime to entertain the 41,000 in attendance. They simply walked out, played three uninspiring songs in three different formations and walked off.
It's pretty sad when the baton twirler is more entertaining than the entire band.
Agreed. Repeated the same formations that they used pre game. Played nothing that excited anyone.
Are people really that geeked to watch a marching band?????
Band was great. It was loud and proud from the upper deck!! Quit being such a downer on a day history was made.
I’m with this guy . . .Quote:

Are we complaining about the band? We just won the conference title! Didn’t see halftime but the band played loud and proud all game! If you’re coming here with that crap, go play in the sandbox with the little kids. The adults have something to celebrate tonight!
To complain about this on a great day like today…unbelievable. The band more than did their part tonight. If you don’t like what they’re doing, go get nachos at halftime and quit whining about those kids that busted ass all week - and all year starting in July for the ONLY time they get mentioned here being when people complain about them - to practice those sets and songs that just weren’t up to your standard.
Band was great after the game during the post game championship celebration. I often am quick to criticize our band but not today.
It was a great day all around!
Geaux Cajuns!
They sound much better live than on TV, if you are close to them. I think they should go in the corner again so people on the east side can hear them.
Don’t complain, you may be sitting next to the band next year.
Brock knows bands literally.Quote:

Thank you band members.
Agreed Band was great, but I was there to watch football.Quote:

Bring back Jim Goodman.
Considering that Louisiana's first band ever (1901) was a marching band. There should be a tradition to uphold.Quote:

Maybe either 23 or 24 because those don’t have our FCS game listed yet.Quote:
