2006 LSU-45 UL-3

[kracka75LSU]

LSU never called off the dogs.

Both teams got valuable playing time for their 3rd string.

LSU is a better team than they were in 2002, but have less to show for it.

Compared to 2002 LSU scored less, UL scored more.

The drought is over.

UL can run the ball.

This will be a fun season.

Judging from what I saw of the drubbing NT and Wk got today, if yall don't win yall's conference this year, yall should be shot. Yall have a legit running game. But I had a feeling of that anyway. I know yall got beat pretty good, but yall really do have a good team. I just don't see why yall didn't throw the ball more with the success yall did have when yall did it. Good luck to yall, and to all I am glad that yall had a good time today besides the final score.

it was no surprise that LSU won - they are far more talented (thanks to St. Martin Parish) than UL.

Thats right, it was a good week to be from Breaux Bridge. We put it on Lafayette High Friday and a very solid performance by Daniels, Zenon, and Alexander. How we didnt take state when we had all of the is beyond me. The only sad part about this weekend was UL not getting more points on the board. We are better than the score showed, but hey, I'm ready for TAMU now.

Thoughts

your running game looked very solid.
Your run defense also looked very solid.
Your special teams is better.
You outplayed us for a quarter.
I was impressed and you guys looked better than I thought you would. I think you can definitly win the sun belt, and I will be pulling for you in all of the rest of your games. I hope those of you that went somewhat enjoyed yourself and I REALLY hope you beat ATM.

The Tigers were awesome once again, but yeah...we are vastly improved. We just might be very competitive the rest of the year!

best of luck,

Z.

Hey, Z! Did I see you at the game? I was way up in Sec. 643 with my son.

South Louisiana is home to some of the best, most generous people on Earth. Really. Just ask us. In Acadiana, hospitality knows no bounds, though maybe it should. Once again, LSU beat Acadiana’s home team into unquestionable submission — and used some of Acadiana’s finest to do it. This might be the best Louisiana-Lafayette football team in a generation, one expected to win the Sun Belt Conference. But by the time the sun set over Tiger Stadium, the Ragin’ Cajuns were well on their way to a 45-3 demolition at the hands of the Tigers — and a bevy of Acadiana players were part of the wrecking crew. Breaux Bridge’s Jonathan Zenon returned an Jonathan Babb interception early (this just in, an LSU defensive player secured a turnover) to give LSU an early 14-0 lead. His cousin and high school teammate Jessie Daniels led the Tigers in tackles, and Breaux Bridge’s Charles Alexander added four stops. Early Doucet of St. Martinville scored a touchdown and returned a pair of kickoffs. The rest of the story By SCOTT RABALAIS Advocate sportswriter

Tailgating started early on a sunny Saturday outside Tiger Stadium, and after nightfall it resumed earlier than usual thanks to a large, ever-safe lead the No. 8-ranked LSU Tigers rang up on the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. By the time LSU put the finishing touches on its 45-3 victory over the Ragin’ Cajuns, thousands of fans were on their way home or back in the parking lots, enjoying the rest of a mild September night dressed in late October temperatures and unseasonably low humidity. They’d seen enough, even if they didn’t see everything. The rest of the story By CARL DUBOIS Advocate sportswriter

BATON ROUGE -- The bout between the University of Louisiana defense and LSU quarterback JaMarcus Russell could have been stopped by technical knockout before half-time here Saturday. The Cajuns could do nothing with Russell's strong right arm, one that only threw four incompletions for the evening and turned in a 253-yard, three-touchdown effort. That, more than anything else, made Saturday's UL-LSU game yet another in a series of mismatches between the two clubs. The Tigers' 45-3 victory came in wide-open fashion, after the Cajun defense held LSU's running game in check through most of the first three quarters. "We did a lot of zone pressure," said UL coach Rickey Bustle, "and that kind of left our (secondary) guys out there alone. And they (LSU) were hitting it up in there. We helped our secondary guys a little more in the second half, but they still got some underneath." The Tigers finished with 299 passing yards on only 23 passing attempts. In all, Russell, Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux combined to complete 17 of 23 throws, and Russell had scoring passes of 58, 16 and 28 yards in the first half. "We threw the ball well," said LSU coach Les Miles. "Early on we could have thrown and caught almost everything and we did, but we expect that from JaMarcus and that receiving corps."
