MAT backs LOUISIANA!

Nicholls also beat LSU in a midweek game.

UNO beat us in our only game against them in 2014. Should they hang the banner saying they were the best baseball team in Louisiana that season?

Comments like yours is why so many people think us winning some midweek game against LSU is our “biggest accomplishment”. I would have gladly trade a loss that night in exchange for even just being in the championship game for the Miami Regional.

We had a good season improving on the past few years, they won the whole freaking thing in Omaha.

Very interesting post. Thanks.

But couldn't also one use that same data to presume that the regional system is flawed? And thus gets the desired result from the so called "big boys" that set it up

It’s not us that starts it. Go on their message boards when we beat them. They all create these fake narratives about our fans celebrating like we won the World Series, hanging banners, and claim how we can just end the season that night because our goals have all been fulfilled….from a Tuesday Night game. It’s the same reason why Ragin Review created that parade video and posted fake t-shirts. It was a response to their goofy narrative. And then, some of them STILL thought we actually printed shirts and threw a parade without realizing that we were mocking their claims.

No matter how much they deny it and no matter what they say about how our fans react to beating them, they HATE losing to us. Hate it.

I assumed there was no way a semi intelligent person could have thought that the parade a tee shirts were legit and not satire. Not sure if it’s funny or sad that so many of their fans and even their media guys (camo hat included) ACTUALLY believe it was real. Still. Like 3 months after the video and it’s been commented on time and time again.

It’s a joke meant to make fun of you and it actually gets funnier because the marks can’t help themselves by proving the satire to be true.

Some laughed and actually complimented the creativity. Others actually believed it and went as far to use their claim as some type of winning argument which makes it all even funnier.

There's a reason fans of every other team in the SEC hate LSU fans... And when they meet LOUISIANA fans they're shocked to find out that we are nothing like LSU fans.

[CajunSaint08]

And is it just me or are many of the most vocal ones guys that never even went to LSU to begin with?

No, not just you. I always wondered why a person would want to give their support and allegiance to a school who thought they weren't good enough to be a student or athlete of their school. Case in point. Ruffino played football at SLU and I can only assume graduated there. TSAB obviously didn't enough of Ruffino to offer him an academic or athletic scholarship. Yet he professes his dying love for the purple and yellow.

Go on Twitter and even a few of OUR students are like that.

Speaking of fake narratives, a really funny one that I often see online is how Cajun fans are bandwagon Alabama fans and get decked out in Alabama gear at times. I've honestly never seen that. Ever. It seems like underlying insecurities to me

Ruffino was trying to play on that fake narrative by asking MAT why he wasn't criticizing Amos's recent transfer there

Also amusing and somewhat concerning to me is that this clown works in some capacity at the governor's office.

OK I am listening.

First thing: 'Rough' thinks that "because" Louisiana State University Agricultural & Mechanical College ONLY uses the first letter of the first three words in their full name ... that University of Louisiana at Lafayette is somehow obligated to use the first three words as well.

OK that's ULa not ULL.

Besides that, he ignores that dozens of Univerities only use the leading letter of the first TWO words.

Louisiana is, not obligated to follow LSU's course of branding.

[cajungrad2001]

You could have used another word besides the R word.

How about revolting any way you cut it why would you stand up for fans and a school that looks down at us when we have to go play anything over there they constantly shove that ULL BS in our face . I can’t stand their fans and never will.

[Turbine]

I don't hear Rough yelling, I do hear him as a forceful talker.

I'm at the point where Rough is claiming "generosity" as the reason for LSU scheduling below G5 schools. Funniest excuse I have ever heard on this evasive topic.

So far, considering the atmosphere, Josh is coming across as super cool in my book.

I don't like TSAB at all and I am not standing up for them. I am backing special needs kids who don't need to be referred to with the name you used. Nothing more bro.
