No it was not. It was Coach Bustle's first victory as the Cajun head man. Occurred in 2002. I remember it very well as Jon Van Cleave had a nice game and I had just moved back to the Lafayette area at the time.
When we went to UAB in 2020, it was a payday game of around 250 grand. Payments were less due to the pandemic. Coach Napier agreed to it due to it being televised on the CBS Sports Network. They also wanted to go to Birmingham as that was where the late Coach Looney was from. The home and home with us going there first had been agreed to prior to Covid impacting things in 2020.

We needed a Chris Smith KO return TD and a 80 yard Rhys Byrns punt to win it at the end. It was a great game, but I don't recall it as a butt whipping.

For me, anytime UL wins, it's an azz kicking...but that's just me...didnt that game end a UAB home winning streak?
