The Book: 2002-03 Louisiana Football season

[Cajun1997]

You are right, it should show us as fans that the team is better than the record but the bottom line with any college sports team is wins and losses.

I am now the big winner of guess the yards so I think I will enter every contest I can find this week.

Louisiana 38
Middle Tennessee 27

Is #100 favored on the road against #101?

[Cajun1997]

They are sure favored by me

[VegasRaider]

Even if we are having a down year. Besides, our team is playing some defense this year.

"can't go against my Raiders"

most of my predictions are with the heart and my hope

[VegasRaider]

Well, we're in the middle of a reversal of fortune. Our defense is looking really good, but our offense has been anemic.

The only teams that have been able to score a decent number of points on us were Alabama (22 in first quarter, and 7 near the end as a gift from our offense) and Kentucky.

Even the mighty UT-Knoxville was only able to score 17 points on our defense (the rest were scored by UTK's defense and special teams).

I sure hope that last night's win over the Vanderbilt Commode Doors instilled some confidence in the offense.
