Thread: Looking forward to November 1

  1. UL Football Looking forward to November 1

    I'm looking forward to Louisiana coming to The Rock this fall! Y'all are a class act and I always enjoy our athletic meetings. Wish we could work things out and make basketball and baseball a regular thing as well.

    Best of luck in the Sun Belt Tournament and hope baseball turns around by the time conference play starts.

    Thanks, Southern Miss Alum, for the kind words. We are looking forward to a return engagement as well.

    I wouldn't mind going back to meeting you every year, like we did from 81-90 and 93-99.

    Although if I had my choice I would take an outcome similar to the 87-93 matchups where Louisiana actually won 3 of 5.

    Unfortunately (for us) you have won the last 6 meetings, most rather handily. In fact Louisiana hasn't defeated Southern Miss since Jake Delhomme was a freshman.

    Still I agree with you, I always enjoy our athletic meetings, and think it would be real nice if we could work things out and make basketball and baseball a regular thing.

    My understanding is that our basketball teams no longer play because the two coaching staffs had a falling out when schedules could not be worked out for a series a few of years ago.

    I'd like to go back to meeting every year in football - home and home - as well. As far as basketball is concerned - both coaching staffs are grown men; they need to get over it and get to the rescheduling!

    I can't disagree with that, especially since we have a tough time filling out our home schedules every year.

    It would really be nice to be in the same conference.

    Can't say I'd put up an argument if the opportunity came up. I think it would be a boost to your overall athletic program, and would eventually be a win-win for all. Your basketball is already solid; same for baseball. Football would, I think, gain the biggest benefit.

    And admit it; you'd love having Tulane having to face you - home and home - as a conference opponent!

    Sure we'd love it. Only one problem:

    They would HATE it. They've done everything in the world to avoid spoiling their delusions of superiority.

    So? That's what would be so fun about it!

    Oh, and something else that would be fun to watch if y'all joined C-USA; the impending UL rivalry - Louisiana vs. Louisville. I really think that would become a massively heated hoops rivalry.

    I'd love to dream about a UL - UL rivalry, but this UL still has a long way to go.
