LGT Sunbelt Championship Final: Louisiana 3, Marshall 31

I dont think that moves the needle at all. Can't imagine any casual fan deciding to go to this game because of a story that happened so long ago. It certainly didn't move it when we played them at home the first time.

Couldn't move the needle, no one mentioned it the first time (travesty)

Have we ever played them at home?

My post was sarcastic. But the movie is good. Marshall football is or at least was a house hold name at one time. Moss, Pennington, leftwich to name a few when they were rolling.

Pretty good anecdotal description of our current crowd..

The 10-12k people that already have tickets for this game know exactly who Marshall is (and was), and are excited about a storied program coming to CF.

The people you need to fill the stadium have barely heard of Marshall, and think they are just another Sunbelt team they've never heard of.

Could we get Matthew McConaughey to do the coin toss?

Team played one game a year dedicated to those who perished in that crash...The 75 Game

This is going to be THE BEST walk up ticket gate of the year.

By a large margin.

The people who will be showing up for this "event" have never bought tickets in advance.

I think we handle Marshall with ease. They were outshined against conference opponents. Lots of turnover luck.

Interesting statistic about Marshall as I’m watching film and looking at stats. Marshall has outgained 3 opponents this year
Been outgained by 8 opponents
Tied Georgia state in offense in that game

Marshall outgained
Stonybrook
Western Michigan
Southern Miss

Tied Georgia state (427yards)

Outgained in every other game.

They do protect the ball and win the turnover battle in most games. Cause alot of TFL’s on defense. But the offense and overall defense aren’t all that impressive. Cajuns play the way they have most of the year, I like our chances.

Those without a tailgating option can go to alumni tailgating at one end of Russo concourse area. $25 per person. Register at this site I believe. Usually it’s food and beer, soda, water included.

Cajuns have outgained 10 of 12 opponents. Wake outgained Cajuns by 6 yards and app state outgained Cajuns by 27.

Ironically Cajuns won both games and both Cajun losses we outgained Tulane and USA

Line moved to Cajuns -6
