[cajun4ever]

Maybe the tips will be good!

I would say a free beer every trip sounds about right.

This is not Charles Lindburgh flying solo across the Atlantic.

Now THAT's funny.

Where is everyone going to tailgate in New Orleans I have a trailer that I would like to bring to Tailgate with we Have TV, Music, and Keg beer if anyone would like to party with us. Just need a location to park it. Please help. Thanks

If our Offensive Line protects well, I feel the Aztecs will win this one. Lindley without being rushed is very good. Add Hillman and we will be hard to stop.

If you can pressure Lindley all game, tight game to the end.

I like this matchup for a really good game.

Hope you can come down, I'd like to meet some of your fans. I was at U(S)L when we played you back in the '70's, and I was stationed in SD when I was in the Navy.

On a neutral site, I'd give you guys the edge. But this is no neutral site, and I suspect the crowd noise will surprise your team. With that, west coast teams often struggle with southern teams. That's why the Big West booted us out way back when, we were winning too much, and we weren't even all that good.

Either way it should be a good game, and I'm glad to have you guys as an opponent.
