2007 Football preview and offseason fan talk

_ I heard that Hayden (trigger) Labauve broke all records in the wheight room but they did not record them b/c of some extracurricular activities. _

Is that what he told you?? haha

These records are not to be considered "all time" or anything like that. Usually the current staffs will record their own numbers; which is the case here.
It's good to see these numbers. They look solid.

CSS is a branch of CBS, I think. It stands for College Sports something, if I'm not mistaken, and its their version of ESPNU. I think that with DirecTV, you'll have a better chance of getting the games than with Cox or other cable providers. Whether or not it will come std or you will need to buy a sports package is different.

I believe CSS is a Comcast station on DirecTV. If so then you should be able to get that game.

put them at KOA in Scott.

_ Why don't they put them on the blacktop on the Cajundome side of the parking lot. I seem to remember lots of out of town campers along that strip for other big games that brought more out of town fans than we are used to. _

Agree with your idea. The newly designated "visitor RV parking" was probably designed based on "normal" traffic from visiting schools (MT would be a good example). Certainly won't be enough room for the McNeese tailgaters (being only 70 miles away). I'm not sure how much UL folks use the first come, first served area on the NE and East side of the stadium; but that would be a good place for McNeese should they bring a large group. Allows them to stay together and is near the area usually designated for visitor seating on the East side. I know most are just poking fun (no further pun intended) at the McNeese folks who visit this site; but I've always had the mindset that you treat visitors well; hoping they will enjoy the experience whether its your home, or in this case your home stadium. Looking forward to a great weekend in Lafayette!

I'm with you. I always try to make an effort...Those spots along bertrand, closest to the congress intersection, are always greatly used. We used to head out there for every game. Most of the time, I would get out there by 7 or 8 and we could get what we wanted, but usually by mid-morning, all of those spots were taken, and RVs were usually parked there the night before. If they get there to late, then jsut tailgate in the parking lot. Should ahve been there earlier.

Yea, I like my neighbor to come over for a beer and burger, but the McNutts take it to a whole new level. They announce they are coming over, grabbing a couple of steaks from your frige and throwing them on your grille, while icing down and guzzling a case of that favorite beer you been holding. Duh? You get home at five and they are mauling your favorite squeeze and act surprised when you tell them to hit the road. That is how I view the typical Delphi McNutt.

[Cajun Express]

_ Any info on TV games for this year? I heard possibly 4...2 on ESPNU, and 2 on CBS Regional. The CBS Regional were South Carolina and Tennessee. Anyone know anything about it?...Thanks...

I think you are right except for the CBS thing. Don't forget you can take advantage of streaming at UL, and the same technology will be in play at other Sun Belt locations.

You haven't had any real life exposure to McNeese tailgaters, have you?

You seem to have a very bitter attitude.
