Hudspeth opts for Gautier

[NewsCopy]

In the end, he went with the junior. Chris Masson, UL's starting QB the past two seasons, watched from the sideline as Blaine Gautier was tapped to take the first snap when the Ragin' Cajuns opened their 2011 season Saturday night at No. 9 Oklahoma State.

Two phrases I don't grasp

... that marked the second pick-six of his career.

His other came in 2009 against North Texas. It went for 70 yards. That pick also was the UL's returned for a TD.

I thought that was what a pick-six was? Unless I'm reading it wrong.

DeForest played linebacker and was a pitcher on the baseball team at UL when it was known as Southwestern Louisiana

Why do writers (everywhere) insist on publishing UL's most recent name?

I mean I don't see writers publishing Michele Bachmann or Sarah Palin's maiden names everytime they write a story about someone from their past.

Not impressed with Gauthier yet.. Yea he can run but he should have had 4 interceptions last night instead of just 1.

I will support whoever the staff decides to play at QB...but I still think that although Blaine is the better athlete, Chris is the better quarterback.

And for those who might be thinking that Blaine is the QB of the future...think Broadway.

The announcers even said last night about the QBs

"Gauthier is a play maker, but Masson is the guy who can get the ball to the playmakers"

They were quoting Coach Hud.
