2019 FB G12: Louisiana 31, ULM 30

[cajun67]

As an old kicker, it looked like a bad catch or maybe the snap.so maybe like Stevie early in the year, might not be the kickers fault but a combo of events!

Same here. Snap looked off and placement ditto. I think that is what kicker responded to. Inches.

Wish granted.

And I’m damn happy about it!

So what happened with the cheerleader?

So what happened with the cheerleader?

From what Cody Junot said, right after the last TD by ULM, the cheerleader was getting a little chippy with the ULM kicker. They actually almost came to fists. That’s when the ref shucked him. It worked cause he missed the extra point and the winning FG.

Before the game I told the fan next to me that ULM will play like there is no tomorrow because a 6-6 season was needed. The Cajuns were west champions and going to the conference championship game. I think that played into the outcome of this game.

some of our guy cheerleaders are pretty stocky, the ref was probably scared that he was going to clean the ulm players clock. On a different note LL picking up the girl he ran over on the ulm sideline was classic

Guys I have something to tell y'all.

I was sitting in the south end zone just to the left of the tunnel with my wife, four kids (even the LSU freshman) and mom, dad , lil sister. During the final drive by ULM, I was on my knees on the concrete with my back to the field, praying the Hail Mary Inc Cajun French - Our Lady of the Assumption - Patroness of the Cajun people. Every time I prayed, the crowd was energized and cheered. When I turned to look and watch the next play, ULM had the upper hand.

On the kick I got down on my knees through both timeouts. Then the moment of faith.as I prayed, the crowd exploded!!! When I looked up at the people sitting behind me, THE FOOTBALL from the kick FELL RIGHT IN BETWEEN ME AND DAD!!!!

It was like the Blessed Virgin dropping an answer to my prayers straight out of heaven!!! My mom grabbed the ball quickly. And gave it to me. I couldn't believe it. I immediately ran down to the railing and looked for a player or trainer to give it to. I saw Dan McDonald and tried calling his name, to no avail.

As I scanned the south end zone for someone to give it to on behalf of the team, I saw the perfect personDr. Bryan Maggard. I yelled at him, but he couldn't hear - the people around him did. They motioned him my way. I showed him the ball and told him I wanted him to keep it. I said he'd earned it. He tried to avoid it but I pitched it to him anyway. He waved and thanked me.

Meanwhile, I didn't know there was a flag on the play, so he told me to hold on so we could see what the deal was. Once it was over and the win was confirmed, he gave the ball to his son and they stood at the goal post as the players left the field. I got to high five many ULM and Cajuns players with my kids. Greatest fan moment ever - almost.

Once they'd all left, Dr. Maggard scoped me out in the stands and threw me the ball back. He said "you have this, thanks for coming out and supporting.". Told him back that he's done a great job.

Really didn't feel right to keep a ball at my house that should be in the trophy case for generations of Cajuns and fans to see. While standing there above the tunnel, I saw a few more Cajuns players coming back to the tunnel from the field. God gave me a second chance to gift the ball to the guy who played great the whole game and represented - Raymond Calais. He and I believe Jamarcus Bradley we're together when I caught his attention.

I told him this was the game ball that missed and won it for us. He lit up like Christmas!!!! He and Bradley held the ball together, shook my hand and said thanks and headed off to celebrate.

I felt so good to get that ball to them.what a game, what a night, what a year. Geaux Cajuns. Merci, Saint Marie'.

That's awesome!

Humphrey.

Wait thought Humphrey wasnt eligible

[GeauxCajuns]

We had a very sluggish start against Texas staterolled coastal.
We didn’t play well at all against inferior South Alrolled Troy
We barely barely squeaked by a lesser Monroe.

[Cajun Soldier]

I'm sick and tired of people using good air to ask people to come to Cajun Field it is what it is. I feel the administration did all it could outside of scheduling better home games and i don't know the limitations they have with that. if you were there for the miss field goal it sound like 30,000 happy Cajun fans. I also felt ULM brought a decent crowd. I hope the lucky fans able to make the trip to Boone have a great time and we get to go anywhere but Mobile for the bowl game.

[Cajunrunner]

Make sure you put one in for next week also please.

Gladly take a one point win next weekend! Though another one like last night might kill some of our old geezer fans.

[angeleast]

The atmosphere was electric. Fans were engaged. Years from now they be 40000 people they saw it in person. Last night was a great, heart attack producing, high blood pressure producing, thrill. Just f ing wow the way all the story lines played out.

[TheRealZeebart]

The ULM kicker should have been left alone instead of being hugged and kissed everytine he was iced by Nape. At that time he knew he was either going to get laid everyday for the next year or be a paraiah the entire Spring Semester. His mind chose his fate.

[angeleast]

If anyone knows the name of our cheerleader please let me know. I'd love to send him a gift card!!! I mean a cheerleadern almost fighting a player is legendary stuff right there
