Louisiana vs LA Tech in 2026, 2029

[Cajunrunner]

Pretty sure last time they played us was at CF, right? When Dixon busted a 99 yard TD run on us in front of all of the recruits Hud invited.

No, that was the first game vs. them in the HUD era. Vast majority of us were all jacked up thinking we'd open up a can after a decade or more of them talking down to us. We were wrong.

The following season we went to Ruston for the return visit, with Nixon as our starting QB, a season some thought Brooks Haack would be our next efficient passing QB. I think most of us before that game knew what was coming in that matchup, and we were correct. Another beatdown handed to us by LA Tech, and we finished with a 4-8 season.

Oh yea, I suppressed the memories from that Nixon/Haack season. Forgot about that.

I like the away games that are drivable. I don't like that the USM game this year was moved to a Thursday night.

Glad we are playing them. Not happy we are going there first and have to wait 7 years for them to come to Lafayette. That will have been 15 years in between games in Lafayette

I thought this was done months ago???

When was the last time the Cajuns beat the Necksters?

Sometime in the 1900’s.

Threw a pick six right before halftime instead of taking a knee. Hard to watch

I thought we went to Ruston after that when they proclaimed to be the "crowning jewel of the university of La system" over the loud speaker. It was also the same game where hud was trying to force one at the end of the half and through a pic 6. Pretty sure from first hand knowledge Jay Johnson wanted to play conservative and regroup at the half. Hud seemed to panic against Tech for some reason. We put together a bus trip for that one.

Where was the last game with them played? If Ruston Maggard lost the negotiations on that deal. I hope we keep our momentum going until then.

I thought the same, but two important facts change that narrative. 1) They played in Lafayette first in 2014 and UL visited Ruston in 2015. 2) These are the dates that worked around both program's schedule commitments.

I hope by the time those games are played the Tech program is so low from being in that shat conference they are like the prodigal son wallowing in the mud with the pigs gladly eating what the pigs eat and we beat them 50-0.
