2006 LSU-45 UL-3

[ATXCajun]

to win their Division. haha, just thought I'd get a little rise out of people.

On a serious note though, looks like 9 out of the 12 "experts" picked UL to win the Sun Belt. The only other schools were Troy, NT, and Mid. Tennessee who each got picked once. The bowl projections have us playing UTEP in the New Orleans bowl.

As for our SEC foes, it looks as if the Tigers(LSU that is), nor anyone else for that matter, got any love as the Auburn Tigers got picked unanimously to win both the West and the outright SEC championship.

Not trying to start any ____ on here (raginpagin.com?) , but I have to agree. Best of luck to you guys (UL fans?) this year but I personally just can't see y'all (UL fans?) going into both Auburn and Florida and coming back with W's.

Here's the link to the expert picks:

I think you missed your target audience.

I think you missed your target audience.

Why does this board change "Cajuns" to "UL"? Am I not allowed to say Ragin' Cajuns anymore?

I hope you guys going to the game enjoy yourselves Saturday night. The majority of you will have a blast and be treated well. I am sure a few of you will run into some rowdy fans, but welcome to the SEC. Every school has their share of idiots. Problem with LSU is when you have 92,000 fans, the number of idiots is high. In addition, LSU plays most games at night. With all the drinking all day long prior to the game and the passion LSU fans have for the tigers, you end up with intoxicated idiots in that 92,000. Regardless of the situation or outcome, just be cordial and ignore any instigators. And of course, don't be dumb enough to incite trouble. Have fun and be safe.

Thanks man, Good luck to you guys also.

I probably will be one of those drunk idoits come 7:00 after drinking all day.
LOL!

Look forward to being with the Cajun & Tiger fans on Saturday.

The challenge for the University of Louisiana football team isn't necessarily a nationally-ranked LSU team this Saturday. It's battling the Tigers' tradition, according to UL coach Rickey Bustle, and trying to get his squad to transition from training-camp mode to game-week mode. "They have such great tradition," Bustle said of his team's 7 p.m. Saturday opponent in Tiger Stadium. "That's the kind of thing we're trying to start back up here. They expect to be one of the top teams in the country every year." The Tigers are ranked eighth in the Associated Press poll and ninth in the USA Today coaches poll going into the season opener, and are coming off an 11-2 season and a 40-3 win over ninth-ranked Miami in the Peach Bowl. The Cajuns won their last five games last season after a 1-5 start, claiming a share of the Sun Belt Conference title in the process. Bustle said Monday his team has to rekindle that success after being off the competition field and on the practice field for the better part of nine months.

The University of Louisiana hasn’t scored against LSU since 1924. You’d think that would be enough time to find a weakness. Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance found a vulnerability in the Death Star and destroyed it before it could become fully operational. The Ragin’ Cajuns will make their 18th trip to Baton Rouge to play LSU with little hope of locating a fatal flaw in Death Valley on a season-opening Saturday night. Still, it’s doubtful any of the previous ULL teams that played in Tiger Stadium brought with them as sophisticated and accomplished an offense as the one fifth-year coach Rickey Bustle is preparing for the 7 p.m. Saturday kickoff. LSU players began studying the Cajuns on videotape Thursday and discovered a team that ranks third in Division I-A in the number of rushing yards (2,566) and rushing touchdowns (31) back from last season in the form of returning players. Only No. 5-ranked West Virginia and No. 9-ranked California return more. By comparison, No. 8-ranked LSU returns players who accounted for 664 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns last season. The Tigers lost Joe Addai — and his 911 yards and nine touchdowns — to the Indianapolis Colts, but LSU has a potential wild-card ace in the return of Alley Broussard. Broussard, LSU’s leading rusher in 2004, ran for 867 yards and 10 touchdowns as a sophomore but missed last season with a knee injury. He’s back. How far back remains to be played out on the field. The Tigers know what ULL returns. Back for his sophomore season is Tyrell Fenroy, who set school records last year with 1,053 rushing yards and five 100-yard games. Quarterbacks Jerry Babb and Michael Desormeaux are back and can run and pass. The Cajuns have three returning offensive linemen who started last season.

Hello Cajuns...
This being my first post and all, let me start by saying that I for one will be supporting all schools from Louisiana. I really dont see where the bad blood comes from.
That said, I wish you all good luck for the game on Saturday. Cant wait to see our Tigers play. I hope its the same way for you all.
Here is to a good game with no injuries :cheers:

Geaux Tigers!
