Louisiana, Buffalo Agree to Home-and-Home Series

[CajunEXPRESS]

Wow! A home game this year and then a road game 7 years from now when global warming has Buffalo at tropical temps!

Great deal!

Yeah, I’d still bring the long-johns.

September in Buffalo? Balmy!

The SBC did after all throw them out. I don’t believe they are too fond of anyone in the SBC.

I believe the arrangement for NMSU to play football was temporary from the very start. They had hoped to stall long enought to join a Western based conference, I.E. MWC. Of course, it did not work out for them. That was not the fault of the SBC.

Well I’m not saying they were treated badly, but to be honest nobody forgets being fired. They were an important cog in establishing SBC football. Of course nobody was sending their bowling team halfway across the country.

I’m not sure, but I believe that some of these schools prefer to be called:

SM instead of USM
GS instead of GSU
OD instead of ODU
South instead of USA
stAte instead of ASU

As long as we’re trying to be fraternal, but there’s no hope for ULMost. I’m glad OD found a way to help us.

I think it all depends on where you live. In Mississippi, USM is known simply as Southern and Mississippi State is known simply as State. Not saying this is what they preferred to be known as, but how the locals call them.

Your point is valid though, being fraternal to MOST of the conference and learning their preferred names would be good. However, I do not care what Covid Carolina wants to be called, as I will not show them that kind of respect. No issues with ULM and using their preferred name, as long as it isn't Louisiana
