Nick White PBP. You will definitely want to sync Jay and G. I remember listening to him on sports radio 97.7 a few years back interviewing George Faust and he referred to the school in Lafayette as Louisiana and Nick called him out for it.

Kolton Browning, who was the ULM quarterback 2011-13 and led them to their only bowl appearance, is an honorary captain for the game as they honor the 2012 team's 10th anniversary.

Him being in the stadium probably gives ULM a touchdown. That dude was good. I have mad respect for him.

[JamesTheJeweler]

Such a quintessential QB name

[JayWalker]

Oh, you mean the game that was a nine point game til Hud stuck it up their ___ with that last second pass to rub it in.

ULM beat us the next year and Coach Berry had a chance to do the same thing to us. But he didn't send anyone out as a receiver.

And in '11, Browning had us beat with an 11 point lead and three minutes left. By the time he touched the ball again, they were behind with less than a minute on the clock.

Oh you mean when they sent an all out blitz with 1 second left? Lol.

And in ‘11 you’re saying they ulmost beat us? Lmao

Yeah he’s a good qb but he also has a losing record against us. And their only bowl team ever in their history is being recognized against a team that stomped them that year. It’s fitting for ulmost.

There are years we wished we had someone that good. Time will tell if this is one of those years.
