_ Ooooops...........did I strike another never my boy? Anybody in their right frame of mind know what happened with South Al, Minnesota, and Clemson. Heck one of those embarassing incidents was on natioinal TV!! _

Are you talking about when the Clemson player (in defeat) pounced on the back of a UL player?

I was at the game (didn't leave early) and I was dismayed to see the entire fan section sit in silence watching the game. The cheerleaders were yelling there heads off, but got no reaction. It's like people have no pride. Heck I have fun cheering on the cajuns, I know they can't here me down there anyway. We had a decent turnout, if everyone is loud while we are on defense maybe we can have a real home field advantage (gasp). The student section sounded loud and proud, I could here them cheering and chanting for most of the game.

I guess my point is for everyone go to the game and try to get everyone around you into the game and off there feet. When an announcer has to tell the fans when to make noise, that is not good. We have many players who deserve our cheers.

It's not hard to figure out why UL's football team is 0-2 for the 2007 season. The Cajuns' first two opponents have played more consistently for a longer period of time than the UL squad, a fact that cost the Cajuns dearly in their 31-23 Saturday loss to Ohio University in their home opener. UL bolted out to a 20-10 halftime lead despite giving up a pair of big plays, more than making up for that with an offense that amassed 356 total yards - 41 more than its entire total one week earlier against South Carolina.

i totally agree with you. i have never seen so many people sitting on their hands in my entire life. I would try to get people to stand up and cheer and they just look at me like i was talking in the middle of a movie theater. We have no home field advantage. The way cajun field was saturday night was probably the least intimidating place to play. At one point i think i heard blake anderson calling the plays straight down to the sidelines from the pressboxes, he didn't even need his head set.

Let's talk about this upcoming game with that team called the McNeese Cowboys. An "unbiased" friend told me that they really looked good against Portland State. I think we are in for a real dog fight (calm down Vick, no dogs).

A quick hindsight... we were expected to get blown away by SC and we played way above external expectations. With Ohio, we were clearly evenly matched, and allowed a close one to slip thru our grasp... with a little help by a bad call. Ohio was extraordinarily disciplined on both sides of the ball. (PS no doubt the touchdown was in the bag. I was only concerned whether the 2 point conversion would also be pulled off. I think we would have sealed the deal in OT.)

Looking forward... the coaching staff is not going to let the team overlook McNeese. They are not going to be "down" like the fair weather fans are. I've been around a few years and seen fans completely turn their back on programs, and the football team comes right back and plays the game of their lives. Happens all the time.

What do you predict will happen this Saturday?

I believe our new offense and defense is going to show its potential. I think it was too much to fully utilize on a SC, and I think Ohio was at least as good as the best in the SBC. This is the last game prior to conference play. I am looking for tight execution and successful results from our new offense and defense. What say you?
