Beating a bigger "name" opponent like SMU might even make more of a statement for the conference though.

I'm talking total fans. Bandwagon, die hards and fair weather fans. There are a ton of alumni in the NOLA area that gave up long ago. I"m bringing four fans and one McNeese fan. = - )

I believe 20 - 25k is very doable!

No Cajun fan should have the desire to play Latex in any sport under any circumstance. Period!
