2010 schedule

_ It should be an interesting game to say the least. I really hate games like this because UL doesn't have much to gain but they have a lot to lose. A loss to any SWAC team would be devestating for a program trying to build a positive identity. Having said that, I still think UL should win this game by 3+ touchdowns. _

I disagree. A win and a 1-0 record will do a great deal for the team and fans no matter who it is against. I hope you are right about the 3 TD's. But I would take a win by 7 with no injuries.

While I agree, I understand what he was saying. You beat Southern, well you were supposed to do it so we're not impressed. You lose to Southern and the end is near. The consequences are not similar in relative terms.

I suppose you are correct in a sense. A 1-0 record will help create some buzz going into the K-State game. Having said that, a win over Southern won't do anything for the program in the grand scheme of things. A loss to a SWAC team would be an embarrassing setback to say the least. Losing to Southern would be a significant step down from losing to McNeese in my opinion.

_ Southern has requested 12k tickets--I think they brought a large group to the Tulane game last year or a few years back!!!!!! _

Hey, if they bring half of that plus my anticipated local crowd of 24K, we're sitting at 30K and I'm happy with that.

On the flip side, I guess you could argue this game is VERY important to avoid the possible embarrassment and setback, lol. Just win the game, avoid serious injuries and no harm is done!

_ Oh, I know that. Here was his comment "No 1-AAs. Haven't seen that in a while."

Thus my reply.

SU will be in on 9/05/2009. My matey and I's 28th. I didn't even offer her a weekend at Cajun Field. She would not have been impressed. LOL _

In my defense, someone else said it. I was responding to his post without thinking.

I'm guessing top 5 crowd for southern.

I'm guessing it will break the McNeese game....Southern travels REAL REAL well! WAY BETTER than McNeese could ever dream of traveling!

Top 3 crowd!

And if they put the barriers in the endzones like they did for the McNeese game it will keep it to around 34,000. Take them down like for the Texas A&M and Bame games and it may surpass the Bama amount!

LOL. dude, I think you guys are watching the games in the superdome and assume they travel like this for every road game. Not so. Like I said, I watched several of their home games on CST recently and the attendance looked liked that of a high school game. I think we are a little overzealous with the top 3 and top 5 crowd predictions. I hope it works out that way, I just think it is too optimistic.
