Ok, so after thinking about this for a while now (the how many people will we bring question) and trying to figure out any way to measure potential UL fans at the bowl game, I think 30,000 is an easy figure for us to achieve. Nothing scientific here, but of all the regulars I know, we have doubled or tripled the number if people we will be going with as opposed to a regular season game. You seriously need to include the number if alumni from Houston to...what, somewhere in Florida? I'd put that at about 5 to 8 thousand that would attend. Between the two groups I'd say we would have 22,000-ish. And I have to imagine that between students, bandwagon types, and on/off fans we could EASILY come up with 10,000 people. So, given that completely unscientific SWAG (scientific wild ___ guess), I predict 32,000.-36,000 Cajun fans at the New Orleans Bowl on December 17, 2011.

The school should call for a red out in the dome. They could buy some air time in the NOLA area asking the alumni to come out and paint the city red!

N.O. Area alumni and fans need to be reminded to get tickets thru UL.

Yea, you can always go to Parkway if you want the second best po-boys in New Orleans. Or you can go to Domilise's on Annunciation For the best po-boys. Tell Nu-Nu and Josh that Tony sent you.

Hopefully the alumni association is sending letters and e-mails to every alum and getting that message out.

Way to see how your overall season went then make this decision! You think if they were 9-2 right now or better, they would have made the same choice?

It has changed since the days of the flys buzzing around and my boy with the undershirt scratching and applying the MYnez and da gravy----SOOOOO GOOD as ever though!!!

UL's hopes for claiming a share of the Sun Belt Conference football championship were finally and officially squashed with Arkansas State's win Saturday at Middle Tennessee. The league-leading Red Wolves will take the title outright if current ...

If you want the best gumbo have a bowl before you leave Acadiana. I've never liked the red gumbos to be had around here.

I will buy mine as soon as they are available through UL. For those that have already put their deposits down, is it general admission or can you buy a specific seat?
