I-Bowl Final: Louisiana 16, Houston 23

[Clutch0364]

When you had the lowest attendance in the last 20+ years there is a massive disconnect. Marketing department has their work cutout for them... More than likely they will just blame espn+.

If you disregard what fans are saying long enough, you don’t get them back. Personally I haven’t given up on football and I’ll keep going based on my love of football but I’ll never go back to another bball game. If the admin doesn’t pay attention they’ll lose the fans in every sport.

Just by chance, I’m watching “Banannaland” at this moment.

Granted, different sport, different approach to the rules. But parts of the fan engagement may apply.

Heck, we have the most unique nickname in college sports. Ragin’ Cajuns. We need fan engagement on the Ragin’ level.

One line stuck with me, “we’re in the entertainment business”.

Entertainment extends past the lines. Entertainment is not blasting explicit music. Entertainment is not cheerleaders doing formations and flips. Entertainment is, oh wait, no mascot. Entertainment is not playing the hits of Michael Jackson. Maybe even ditch the military band format. Entertainment isn’t a tee shirt gun.

Entertainment is thinking outside the box. The traditional mold is broken. Someone needs to recreate a new one. And not vomiting out the same thing week after week.

My cousin goes to Mckinney high in Dallas we went to a game this past year . Their in game experience blows the doors off of what they do at Cajun Field.

Yep they put on a show and experience for the fans.

I get the military style DNA band roots are very deep in our community. I know UL doesn’t have the stomach for a Stanford or even Rice approach, but need to loosen up the performances and playlist.

I believe that play, if it’s the one I’m thinking of, should have been a PI on 32. He was grabbing and holding in the end zone.

Maybe the zebras weren’t calling anything to speed up the game and get themselves into a warmer environment.

They didn’t have a problem calling PI on us on that what looked to be uncatchable ball out the corner of the EZ.

I haven’t watched the replay yet. But I was told by family that it was a 3.5 hour Houston commercial. Felt the officials and commentary were loving the cougars. I saw so much holding not called I couldn’t believe it.

Hire Roarman to take over the band and we would be in good shape with song selections.

That pass was uncatchable. A holding call maybe.

Yes, it was a UH coming out party. They kept commenting about how UH should be running up points. They never commented, that I recall, that we kept almost every opponent to low scores except FSU, and to some extent Rice, and SM.

Definitely was not an equal brag pair. I’m kinda disappointed in Duce who is usually right on in his color commentary.

I’m getting ready to rewatch the game. when watching in person, you miss a lot.
And the big screen at the game you just can’t see very well when they do show a replay. I know there was one touchdown he drop but it looked like the defender was draped on him.

I am re-watching the game in the second quarter around a seven minute mark is when the play where Peter could’ve caught A touchdown. The defense player definitely had his arms wrapped around Peter before the ball got to him.
Moot point. Game is over.
Move on to next year! Geaux Cajuns!

My toes are finally defrosting.
