2009 UL Football Schedule

_ That's sweet. Good luck on taking down KSU next year! Games like this should really help generate some interest around the program. _

I don't know how much you're in Lafayette during football season, but for a casual observer like yourself I'd try to make it to our first 2 home games. Vs. Southern and Vs. Kansas State is as good as it's gonna get as far as gameday atmosphere at UL.

...then you can watch the tigers bring us back to reality the next week!

Miss St and Wash St both pooped out of return games after we played them at their places. I sure wish we had gotten a hold of both of them in '08. _

LOL! So true! Might not have been as bad if yall played them last season. UL looked pretty solid! Well at the beginning and middle of the season they were.

I didn't make a game in Lafayette last year, because the schedules of UL and LSU didn't mesh. I like it when LSU has a bye week while the Cajuns are at home. I make every LSU home game and usually 2-3 road games. However, depending on the schedule setup, I'd love to see either KSU or OSU in Lafayette. Southern wouldn't be bad either, because I'm sure that will be a festive atmosphere.

LOL, we talking about football in February! We just skipped over baseball! LOL.

If you hang around on here, you'll hear something about everything... and I mean everything... any time of the year.

THE most important games on next year's schedule don't include Southern, Kansas State or LSU. Sure they have importance but they are not THE most important games.

Mr. Bustle,
Please circle the games against Florida Atlantic and Troy. Beating BOTH of those programs next year will make sure that the Cajuns continue upward momentum. We have to prevail in our conference before we can prevail elsewhere.

I like that we have some BCS teams coming to the Swamp. The bad thing is, if we end up beating one of them, they will never come back like the rest of em.

Man I love it myself, should be a few fun years at Cajun Field!!

Let's first actually BEAT a BCS team... THEN we can worry about whether they come back or not!

All coachspeak and fanspeak aside, the most important game is our first.

Because if we lose to Southern, Bustle should be fired on the spot.

And I think Bustle understands that.

I think we need to take the attitude that every single one of them is important. One thing that always frustrated me with Coach was his constant preaching (usually after doing poorly in non-conference) that conference started the "real" season. While I understand the truth that you could lose all your OOC games and still get to the New Orleans Bowl by winning the Belt (as North Denton did) it seems to leave the perception that the OOC games are "throw aways" or not that important. It made me wonder if that mindset didn't creep into the player's attitudes towards the games just a bit.
