  All the chatter gets louder the closer UL's football team moves toward the weekend.

For 11 players on the Ragin' Cajuns' travel squad, the trip on Saturday to play Sun Belt foe North Texas in Denton is more than just another conference game.

[jllanclos]

Why do y'all keep calling them "Denton" as opposed to N.Texas? Not a flame - just trying to make sure i didn't miss a really funny joke (you know, like UL, corner of Johnston and University - Geaux ULCJU!!!)

250 yards won't break a record, but it will make him only the 7th player in NCAA D1-A history to rush for 1,000 yards for 4 straight years. Fairly Impressive group

1 - Tony Dorsett - Pittsburgh (1973-76)
2 - Amos Lawrence - North Carolina (1977-80)
3 - Denvis Manns - New Mexico State (1995-98)
4 - Ron Dayne - Wisconsin (1996-99)
5 - Cedric Benson - Texas (2001-04)
6 - DonTrell Moore - New Mexico (2002-05)
7 - I don't want to jinx anything, yet
