yea i would like to see a steady rivalry with troy, they seem to have a decent program, talked to a few people from there recently, they seem to have good fans, would make a good rivalry, but i dont feel i can hate troy like i hate other schools we play

Well I think Troy will become our greatest rival, we have always been alot of competition between the two schools just from the past two years.

LOST IN FOOTBALL, CAME BACK WON IN FOOTBALL LAST YEAR, BASKETBALL THEY WIN AT THE CAJUNDOME, END UP BEATING THEM IN THE TOURNAMENT. THEN IN BASEBALL TAKING 2 AWAY FROM THEM, AND THEM END UP WINNING THE CONFERENCE.

So I mean in the next couple of years it will end up being really close in all of the sports and I have to say that they have ended up giving us the most competition in our conference. So I see a Rival between UL and Troy in the next couple of years. I see it happening in the next 2 to 5 years.

If they consider ULM a rival, then we as a university, and athletic program have lost a lot of ground.:confused: :confused: :confused:

ULM is not on an academic level with us.
ULM is not on an athletic level with us.
ULM is not in a growth area of the state.
ULM just came off life support.
ULM sole use to us is our w---re to keep football in the Sun Belt.

I have a feeling that is a bunch of moanrovians stuffing the ballot box.

As far as conference teams go the game I love the most in all sports is Middle Tennessee. It always seems to be a good game and they have great fans. It's not the heated rivalry thats makes us hate the other team but I think more of us respect Middle and want to be associated with them, unlike ULM who most of us would like to be far away from.

i agree, i think this could be our overall rival in the future. they always play strong. i didnt think about athletics as a whole, i was only thinking football. now its clear

I was just wondering who Louisiana fans consider to be their biggest rival in football.

For Troy the answer is easy, Middle Tennessee. We hate those guys and they hate us. But who do you guys hate? And why?
