Jay, you state we are likely to complete the schedule with one more home game and one more road game. Are there any favorites for those two slots. If so, who are they. I sure hope the last home game is not against a non D1 school. Having two of those on the schedule is enough.

THe CAjuns will play UCF in Orlando on Dec. 15th. That leaves one game left to schedule. If the Cajuns can't get a home game that is attractive for them, they will simply not schedule a 29th game. They will not schedule another road game.

Right now their schedule has 14 home games and 14 road games.

UCF will return the visit in the 2011-12 season.

Yes, but the return route after a big win is much shorter, right?

"There was some serious talk about the Cajuns hosing a tournament this year, but, although not totally dead, it looks as though the Cajuns will complete their schedule by playing one more home game and one more road game."

I remember fondly the Bayou Classics back in the day... I'd love to see it happen again... if not this season, soon

Unfortunately that name has been taken over by Grambling and Southern football. You bring back that tournament with the same name and people with claim that we stole the name.

Why not simply the "Louisiana Classic"?

Wouldn't this name be misleading since the school hosting isn't the flagship university of the state?

Flagship has nothing to do with it. If it doesn't have "University of" before it, use of Louisiana is NOT illegal. That is also why we can call ourselves Louisiana athletically, i.e. Louisiana Ragin Cajuns. I still don't know why we use the Louisiana's Ragin Cajuns. This is not meant to get into a name issue thread. It was only a suggestion for a name for the basketball tournament should be again host one.

This makes sense. I was just curious after reading a previous poster's remark about Grambling & Southern claiming the title "bayou classic".
