11/1/08 — Fenroy is 4x1,000-yard rusher, 1000th game and Sun Belt-record 29,031 there, UL 49, FIU 20

I really think this was the greatest moment in the history of "The Swamp". You can't write a script in which a player goes over 1000 yards for the 4th time/season in a row in the 1000th game at Cajun Field.

10/18/08 — Backup QB Brad McGuire leads rally from 23-14 down in final 4:16, UL 28, Arkansas State 23

Going into 2009 I felt the same way about Brad McGuire's situation as I did about Jake Delhomme when Haslett was hired by the Saints. Delhomme provided plenty of sparks in a 31-24 upset of playoff bound Dallas year before and played Carolina by himself rushing for 68 yards when Ricky Williams could only muster a dozen or so. Still Jake was totally ignored as a potential starter the next season.

There is no doubt that even with the severely limited opportunities given, Brad has "it" and can rally a team as noted by his being nominated for one of the top 40 moments in Cajun Field history.

Even last year when inserted into a hopeless situation he produced a 91 yard touchdown.

I had hoped he would get a chance in college like Jake did.

Still I have nothing against Masson and think he will do better this year as I think he will have caught up to the speed of the game and hope he can produce a top-40 moment.
