The Book: 2007 Football

_ "... Regardless on the fact that McNeese isnt considered a rival because of a division 2 program I promise you that they will be ready to play. UL better learn real quick to nail the coffin shut. The last thing that we need is a loss to them. This would kill attendance and support for the cajuns in the stadium. That is the LAST thing we need. I know Bustle and company will be ready to play...Geaux Cajuns _

Well said and true. This is a big game because its the next game. Its a big game because we are 0-2, and its a big game because we are playing our neighbors to the west, fellow louisianians all (well most, but Texas is a whole 'nuther country so we count them as international students). Its good for us and them financially and, well, it will be an absolute hoot to be there for tailgaiting and the game. The Pokes know how to support their team and they will be here "en masse". We will be raining red as well, you can bet your last dime on that. Having said that, I will add that this game would be huge to lose but just so-so to win for the overall prospects of our team, in context of the SBC and our season. I'll bet that's how State feels when we or any other 1A in-state school plays in BR.

I have to admit, I remember the old days and the old rivalry, and I am sorry to say to some small extent, but I am fired up for this one... so let's deliver a ton of slobber-knockers, put this one in the "W" column and get ready for the SBC!!!

Geaux Rouge, Geaux Blanc!!!!!!

Randy Roach hopes that Joey Durel will be wearing blue and gold after the game


Sept. 14, 2007


City of Lake Charles Mayor Randy Roach and Lafayette City-Parish President Joey Durel have made a friendly wager on the outcome of Saturday night's football game between the McNeese State Cowboys and the UL-Lafayette Ragin Cajuns.

Roach, a long-standing supporter of McNeese State and member of the Cowboy Club, will wear a Ragin Cajun football jersey on Lake Charles television should the Cajuns prevail, and Durel, a graduate of UL-Lafayette, will wear a McNeese State football jersey on Lafayette television should McNeese win.

"I can't wait to see Joey Durel in the McNeese blue and gold," said Roach. "Joey just might be surprised how really good he will look in that Cowboy jersey. I'm bringing mine with me to give to Joey at the game."

"I'm sure Randy Roach will look very good in red and white Monday morning," said Durel. "In fact, he may find he really likes the red and white. If I were Randy, I wouldn't expend too much effort trying to find a Cowboy jersey for me, because it won't be necessary."

Southwest Louisiana college football bragging rights are in the balance. Stay tuned!

Well at least I can cheer for a winning program. I would hate to keep wasting my Saturday night watching my team get a beatdown.Maybe to save you guys from further embarrasment you should go back to 1AA and maybe you could compete....humm then again maybe not. Lafayette Sports column this Sunday will read ULL loses to a 2nd rate football team and are now 0-3.

Hummm... didn't read my rebuttal? I can't wait for you and the annoying, trolling, big mouthed McNeese fans to leave.

Cowboy Up can stay, though.

Im sure you guys would be happy to make it to the Weedeater Bowl. Whats that fierce 1A Cajun team ranked in the national polls? Probably around or below most 1AA schools.

Some people are addicted to smack, you coming in tommorrow? If you read the whole thread you will find where Cowboyup showed a rank with McNeese on top. You can add App State and one or two more. If you think there is more you addicted to smack.
