2023 Home Opponent

Freaking A.

We replaced a bottom of the barrel contemporary with a much better contemporary.

So let's take a look at the "I'm ____ed at Ray Authement" check list.

"If they schedule an FCS team, it sucks and I'm not renewing my season tickets", or

"If they schedule a road game against a P5 team, it sucks and I'm not renewing my season tickets", or

"They scheduled a better than average G5 contemporary, it sucks and I'm not renewing my tickets."

Did I cover it all?

Yes and then some

My opinion it’s a good get. I just hope the return game is not in the dead of winter!

Who the hell do you want to schedule in this situation? From the attitude you've shown lately, the admin could have scheduled a home game with Alabama and you would still complain.

I just think, for better or worse, UL can do better. Our peer University's in the Belt seem to outschedule us on a regular basis...why is that? Somehow, we should always strive to do better, especially with scheduling ( and just about everything else the athletic department touches)...
I'll be there, just don't think this moves the needle much for the program

I think AOC said the earth won’t exist by 2030. So no biggie.

I’ll take door C for all the money Monty.

AND, a upgrade over NMSU.

And not a SLC/SWAC FCS team. Am I jumping with joy? No. Am I angry…yes, but not at Maggard. NMSU is dead to me.

NMSU was also in a no win situation. I’m not holding animosity towards them. But I’m also not forgetting that they didn’t help with in any way possible.

Apparently, Old Dominion did us a favor. They dropped Buffalo from their schedule to allow them to schedule the Cajuns at home.

Old Dominion did not have a FCS opponent on their schedule and by dropping Buffalo they scheduled Texas A&M – Commerce out of the Southland.

I guess we owe Old Dominion a favor.

Hopefully it will be a slightly warm Saturday. Buffalo will be jelly legged by halftime. Coming from Canada. Haha

Think EMU this past year. Stuck it to us in the first. Looked more than 2 steps slow in the second.

Another dive to the bottom for UL Football....Expect another crowd under 8k...and no students...

I hope that is sarcasm? What more did you expect at this point when most schedules are made years in advance?

Too bad there wasn’t a two hour lightning delay in the Independence Bowl. Probably coming back to overwhelm Houston.

Considering the situation this late you really can’t ask for much more. Great home game addition at this point.
