    That’s not the root cause though. Hosting a P5 once every 3-4 years won’t fix anything. It’s a culture problem!

    And I’m all for 2/1 with P5s.

    It rained for 6 hours during tailgate time. Very heavy at times. I’m surprised that 16k (reported) showed up.

    SLU didn’t travel either.

    Not making an excuse, but sometimes you have to acknowledge the circumstances.

    I still have hope for the community. They’ve showed out before. Can they do it again with a home town guy coaching and a winning program?

    ……lAsked my neighbor in the morning if he was going and his answer was “depends on the rain”……no way people go if it continued to rain with the same as the morning down pour!

    Magyars? Is she/he a new hire in charge of scheduling? I know the Cajuns are short staffed and would hire just about anyone.

    Would probably be 3 for 1 with P5's.

    No problem whatsoever. Got our beer in about 2 minutes. Lines were short or nonexistent.

    I don’t agree with you here. The root cause, in my opinion, is the fickle ho-hum attitude of Acadiana and the Louisiana alumni. We have never seen success like this and can’t put 20K in Cajun Field on opening weekend.

    Now, my 20K capacity comment was sarcasm, but we definitely don’t need a +40K facility.
    This. I personally know about 30 UL alum that live in Lafayette, who are big football fans and were in NOLA last night getting ready for the State game. And that is our biggest problem. We have horrible alumni.

    Before the game the downstairs main concession stands were full with long lines. Just before halftime upstairs main concession stand was very quick to get what you need. The one off to the side when you get either beer, soft drink, chips, and candy not so much. three people in front of me just getting one beer with five people work in the stand take an average of one to two minutes just to pay for and then they open your beer for you. A little slow but what can you ask for when is volunteers working. Not complaining just was in a rush to get the granddaughter some candy and chips so we could get back and watch the band for the halftime show.

    If you got the grand daughter a beer she would enjoy the band more . . . Just sayin
