You can keep him, we're done with him.I like this guy.
The University of Louisiana football squad can't afford to have any more cornerbacks get hurt, especially with the task the Ragin' Cajuns face this weekend.
UL travels to face Texas A&M at 6 p.m. Saturday, meeting an Aggie offense that was one of 11 in the country to both rush and pass for an average of 200 yards per game last season. A&M uses a combination of a spread offense with an option package, much like the Cajun squad.
It puts pressure on an entire defense, especially at the corners, and UL will be without two regulars for Saturday. Jarrett Jones, listed as nickel back on preseason depth charts, is still battling a sore knee, and backup right corner Jemarcus Smith is out with an injured toe after playing only six snaps in last weekend's 45-3 loss at LSU.
"It's brought our group closer together," said UL cornerbacks coach Terry Sims. "The guys that are out are out there helping the other guys with technique, things like that. They've both played a lot of football, and they know what to look for."

Matching up with Texas A&M makes for a big weekend for most members of the University of Louisiana football team.
But for tight end Erik Jones, it's absolutely huge, as it would be for any long-time dyed-in-the-wool Texas Longhorn follower.
"My dad went to Texas," Jones said, "so A&M has a lot of extra meaning for me."
Football fans in Acadiana may not know how deep the rivalry between the Longhorns and the Aggies go. For those involved, it's not just about football or even athletics. It's a way of life.
The Aggies downgrade the "T-sippers." Longhorns tell Aggie jokes. The state's divided between those who wear maroon and those who wear burnt orange.

Just amazing to sit here and read through this thread and compare it to the cr*p we listened to last week... And they wonder why my name is what it is.................. Cant wait till tomorrow... heading towards College Station.. Gonna try to make the bonfire Friday night.............
Do they still do the bonfire????Originally Posted by IHateLaState
Not really...maybe he is refering to Midnight Yell on Friday night (well, technically Saturday morning).
bonfire is only before the texas game... I think he is referring to midnight yell practice at kyle field.
Hey guys, I will be in Lot 97 and I offer free beer to any cajuns who come by and say hello!
yep ... my bad.. I did mean the yell practice at midnight... It was a lot of fun last time we played...Originally Posted by Texas Aggie
