Players relish crowd
Ragin' Cajuns beginning to enjoy noisy fans for home games
LOUISIANA La. — This could get to be habit-forming.
University of Louisiana played before 25,083 fans last Saturday at Cajun Field, and came through with a 24-17 Sun Belt Conference win over Middle Tennessee that may bring fans back for more.
“That was the first time I played in a stadium that loud at home,” said UL safety Antwain Spann, whose interception preserved the victory with 39 seconds to play.
“It got loud a couple of times when we were on offense,” running back Chester Johnson said. “But that’s all right. It didn’t bother us. It gave us a lot of energy.”
“I can’t thank the crowd enough,” coach Rickey Bustle said. “I really think they helped with (causing) some of the penalties for Middle Tennessee when they were trying to make some calls late in the game.
“That’s another lifeline for us. We realize that winning gets them in the stadium, and we want to keep doing that.”

Hey Tubine, I've upgraded to the latest version of Real a couple of weeks ago, yet nothing still comes up when I try and view the video. Is it because I'm using Firefox? Or could something else be wrong?

I'm noticing that the players often quote the coaches in interviews. Everybody on the same page. Philosophy bought and sold. We haven't had that in a long time.
