End of Year Rivalry Game

[Turbine]

... The Cajuns... beat them in SB and BB, nothing else.

"We are starting to beat LSU... a little bit in sports, but in other areas, badly"

That fits his description

[CajunFun]

Where is UL beating TSAB a little bit in sports? The Cajuns can only beat them in SB and BB, nothing else. I hate TSAB but this is facts.

We were ranked in the top 25 in football for a couple of years, and they weren't. That has never happened to them with another state university before.

But it wouldn't matter if it were just baseball and softball. It wasn't long ago that no public university in the state stood up to them for long. LSU simply out-spent them and shut them down.

We have stood up to them, and when they tried to shut us down, we did not go away, we rebounded. We've done it in sports, but we've done it a lot more in academics.

Trust me, among anyone who pays attention at LSU, there is a growing unease. Because at night, when they go to bed and the lights are off, they know they are imposters.

I have said it previously, and I will shout it from the rooftops: they have three times our faculty, four times our budget, and five times our doctoral programs, and we just passed them in research funding at $205M.

That is mind-blowing. Or it would be, except that we have an excellent chance of passing $300M this year... which is not only much more than they generate, it is more than they currently falsely report. They won't even be able to pretend we haven't passed them.

Are they hearing footsteps? Trust me, they're having nightmares about footsteps.

But they're hearing them coming from in front of them, and coming directly at them.

We "were" ranked in the top 25 in football. Were is the magic word. The Cajuns can't stay consistent and that is what TSAB has over us. Two years after the fact the Cajuns are 6-6 playing the 125th weakest schedule and finishing 5th in the west division of the SBC conference. The 6 wins are against teams with a 22-44 record. Let that sink in. Even you would now have to admit the program has fallen big time. You still think Mike was the right hire? Seems like we are having nightmares and not hearing anyone else's foot steps.

Last five years football records:
Tsab: 45-19
Cajuns: 46-18
(And yes even with an alleged NC, counting as 15-0 in that time span, cajuns still ahead)

And how many more water ski National titles do we have over them, oh right all of them.

[R1Letterman]

How was tsab consistent?
15-0 then two losing seasons

And look at the 2011 title, then vacated all wins for the next four years, hard to believe they started cheating right after winning it all?

[R1Letterman]

Cajun fun, when I read the new R1 parameters, not sure if I am reading too much into it, but it seemed they changed the way they count the funded from raised/generated to spent...

Does that mean the TSABs of the world can just spend their own money on unapproved research just to get total dollars spent (i.e. wasted) higher?

[R1Letterman]

Imagine if we had one 15-0 season and then added with the next four seasons ulm or LaNeck still had a better record overall record

Want to see a whole new level of pettiness, here you go.

I don't think so. It is a nice article. Who wouldn't write an articl3 about their team finishing 2nd in nation in something. Don't all 8 usually get lauded for college world series?

I like the idea of dressing up for the picture too, that would be a good idea for cajuns to do as well.

As far as the hyphen lafayette that part was clearly cut and pasted from the competition/governing body website and teams were in alphabetical order.
Maybe not a+ journalism but I wouldn't call it horrible or petty

Sking championships are utterly worthless. Nice shiny button on your coat

"IMO in a perfect world we would play Tech OOC every year on this week."

No. Just, no.

Why not? We know Tulane won’t commit to it.

Tech, Arky State or USM.

[Cajunrunner]

On top of that, we just elected an alum to the governor's mansion. As you all know, the LSU kiddies are blowing hemorrhoids because his transition team is meeting at UL instead of LSU.

I’d be curious to know if you actually voted for Landry.

Bob Mann has certainly been crying since an hour after election results.

You missed it. They never mentioned who won.
