I am sooooooooooooo sick of hearing that freaking guy say Louisiana-Lafayette------What happened to our being called what we asked for??? I mean it is insanity ---I know they were doing it to not call us ULL or Lafayette which he did call us but ----ENOUGH!!!!!!

I was wrong on my pregame assessment: I said Gautier needed to Play much better for us to win. Turns out Broadway had it under control!
Hope it's nothing serious with Blaine...

Great win, still lots to improve on (which is somewhat encouraging). We ran the ball and shut their running game down and as many predicted, that was the key. Big, big win

I do think it's encouraging. Our defense is very powerful... just raw. Offensively, when our passing attack syncs up, the run/pass mix is going to kick butt. I expect to see improvement every game. Special teams already rocks. Overall, I'm very impressed. It is a big win. Troy is no slouch.

Yep, getting two solid wins with so much still too improve on gets me jacked up for what we will see when this D matures and O gets running on all cylinders.

Biggest win for UL at Troy since 1951.

Even my wife said the commentators were horrible. She said they sounded worse than a high school game.

[CajunEXPRESS]

The announcers sounded like they did zero preparation for the game. Somebody gave them a a bullet point about a twenty-one game win streak by this coach, and twenty-five overall. ESPN staff told them to talk about that as being a big motivator. Other bullet points was UL quarterbacks needs to run less, UL defensive backs makes big plays. I mean this is typical ESPN dribble that goes on most games. Only a few premier announcers have the knowledge, and verbal skills to go it without a script.

My problem is I have no option, cannot get the radio synced with ESPN3 because my radio is internet, and about twenty seconds behind the picture. Anyone knows how to hold back the ESPN3 video? lol

About the game, and meaningless stats. I never felt the Cajuns were in trouble, not even during the first drive by Troy. The fact that Troy abandoned the run game, just like they did last year in lots of games told me that our chances to retain the lead improved a lot.

Again the most important stat besides the final score is turnovers, not yards, not time of possession.
speaking of time of possession at the half the Cajuns were down six minutes eighteen minutes and change to eleven minutes and change, and in the second half we closed the game to four minutes thirty-two and change to twenty seven and change. So the second half was a net gain for UL of about two minutes of time of possession.
