    I truly, truly fail to see the point of you posting a message that is clearly intended merely to inflame the tempers of others, make them dislike you intensely, and just, in general, put a bad taste in our mouths about the fans of your particular university. If tasteless and classless was what you were shooting for with your post, let me be the first to salute you. You hit the bullseye on that one, chief.

  4. UL Football Louisiana looking forward to Cajun Field

    LOUISIANA La. -- The University of Louisiana returns to Cajun Field this week and no one is happier about that than Rickey Bustle.

    "We're very glad to be coming home, finally," Bustle said Sunday. "Hopefully we'll have a good crowd on hand to support us. It's a chance for us to show our fans we haven't given up.

    "It's been a long, hard road."

    That it has been.

    The Cajuns (0-6) lost at Oklahoma State Saturday night, 56-3, to go 0-for-3 on their mid-season road swing through Minnesota, Texas and Oklahoma.

  5. UL Football Easing up a bit

    Cajuns ready for softer part of schedule

    LOUISIANA La. -- University of Louisiana football coach Rickey Bustle thinks everyone should be a head football coach. For two weeks, anyway.

    "Not one week, two weeks," Bustle joked Monday at his weekly news conference. "So they can go to that quarterback club (one week) and tell them what you're gonna do and then go back to that quarterback club (the following week) and tell them why you haven't done it."

    That has been one of Bustle's difficult tasks the last six weeks as his University of Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns have gotten off to an 0-6 start.

    "I haven't got any questions that I probably didn't already cover because I don't hold any punches about the way we play," Bustle said. "If we make mistakes, we make mistakes. I'm not going to point a finger at somebody even though I know who made it (mistake)."

    The fact that the Cajuns are winless is not that surprising. One look at their schedule through six games tells the story.

  6. UL Football DE Hills rides out the storm

    LOUISIANA La. — We’ve all heard the phrase, “Tough times don’t last, but tough people do.”

    Louisiana's Ragin’ Cajuns are testing that theory.

    They’re trying to survive tough times long enough to see their rewards, but each defeat adds weight to their burden.

    At 0-6 overall and 0-2 in Sun Belt Conference play, the Cajuns are almost certain to post their eighth straight losing season and are out of the running for a Sun Belt title.

    What’s left is a team still learning while rebuilding a program’s pride.

    Last week at Oklahoma State, UL outgained the Cowboys 131-33 in the first quarter but only led 3-0 after blowing scoring opportunities. Properly awakened, OSU rolled to a 56-3 win.

    “When the offense moves the ball, and does it every time, it gives us more confidence,” defensive end Tony Hills said on Monday. “They were pinning them deep, and that gives us a chance to get safeties.”

    As much as anything, that reflects the hope that can only be harbored by a redshirt freshman.

    Instead of bemoaning a lost scoring chance, Hills was licking his chops, thinking of a score by the defense.

  7. UL Football Bustle: It’s no time to relax

    LOUISIANA La. — Fans who have grown weary of seeing UL hammered by a grinding schedule may view the upcoming homecoming game with Sun Belt Conference rival UL Monroe as a relief.

    That may not be such a good idea.

    It’s true that both squads are 0-6 overall and 0-2 in SBC play, and that the Ragin’ Cajuns and Indians seem well-matched.

    But last season, one week after a near-upset of SEC member Arkansas, coach Rickey Bustle’s flat team was ambushed 34-10 by ULM in the 2002 season finale.

    That memory should keep the Cajuns focused this week.

    “Last year when we played them, we didn’t have any fight to us,” Bustle said Monday. “They were the better football team that night, and they got out there and whipped us.

    “Both of us need a win, and there’s no question they think they can come in here and win.”

    Quote of Glenn Quebedeaux
    "According to the NCAA, the Cajuns' schedule through the first half of the season ranks as the 20th toughest schedule in the nation. The Cajuns' first six opponents are a combined 21-10 (.677)
    So far I have read 11th, 20th, and 33rd.

    (without doing any research) All I know/recall is it has been the strongest first half to a Ragin' Cajun season ever.

    UL Football

    I didn't hear most of the game but it seemed UL played fairly even with OSU in that first quarter. Is the team maybe wearing out as the game progresses? Hopefully they'll have their wind & play hard the whole game.

    I agree the first six games of our schedule do show our record however our record should not show 0-6 we are a better team than what the record shows but that is the past and is neither her nor there we have a 6 game schedule left and all we need to focus on is one weeek at a time and not think ahead to the following week.
