Louisiana, Tulane got extra physical

[NewsCopy]

Based purely on the lead-up, there was ample reason to suspect UL's win over Tulane last Saturday -- the latest installment in a series dating to 1911, but the first meeting between the two Louisiana schools since 2000 -- would be spirited.

Tulane was very fortunate to get the last two years of Stokley and two games in the Baldwin era.

Otherwise UL would be on a 5 game winning streak vs Tulane.

I officially have it out for Tulane - I hope they never win again. Had no idea they ran such a classless and dirty program. Lose with class and stop trying to hurt amateur athletes.

Let me see . . . didn't their head coach stand behind Greg Williams when the Saints defense was on the field? ? ?

if WR coaches stand behind Defensive Coordinators, then yes... What's your point? I think dirty play is dirty play. Whether the saints ever tried to hurt people is up for debate, but I don't recall the Saints ever going after people after the whistle had blown. these dudes are just dirty, poor sports. pretty sad.

They don't come out of high school playing like that.

They had to learn the style from someone.

Gerald made an interesting comment......you're either coached to do that, or coaches are tolerating it.

You are correct. There is no comparison. Tulane is imploding. There's an intelligent art to ramping up the aggression of your team in order to increase productive play on the field. Tulane coaches are allowing, if not fostering, an over the edge aggression. That leads to dirty play. The effect of being a bad football team is bringing out the worst in that program.

I hate to say it. This is a sad, but very true observation. I Hope Coach Johnson gets his act together & doesn't allow Tulane to continue to go the way of Miami.
