For those of you whose ears were damaged by the "OOLALA" At the end of this video, there is an email link at the top of the article. Feel free to voice your displeasure. I did.

Congrats from San Diego. That was one hell of a game and Louisiana was tough!!!

All respect from here and I am so glad that both teams played so hard and represented our schools.

Steve, you are a class act.

It is also archived on ESPN3. Plan on watching it in the next few days.

I DVR'ed it on ESPN 3D. Really excited to sit and watch it. It'll be my first football game in 3D!

The Kick...

[CajunRed]

Watching where Brett's kick hit the net, it seems like that ball might have made it over from 57 yards, much less just a measly 50.

I agree Bag o doughnuts was awful on stage. Generally a fun band, but not Saturday

I just wanted to take a moment to bring some light to this guy. Dude was NAILS last night, and has been all season. Lost in the record performance by Gautier, Lawson also cemented himself into the record book. He became just the 3rd player in UL history to eclipse 1000 yards receiving in a season, his 193 yards last night was the 4th most in school history, his 1092 yards on the season is 4th in school history, he just pushed Fred Stamps down the list, and the only player in front of him is Brandon Stokely. What a breakout season for this guy, cant wait to see what his encore will be in his senior season next year.

Also, one other thing, with the TD last night, Green finished the season tied for 5th most recieving TDs in a season ever. Also, while Gautier broke Delhommes single season passing yards record, AND passing TD's record (all while he barely played in 2 games), he also had the 2nd most passing yards in a single game ever, AND accounted for the most offense from scrimmage ever with his 492 yards of total offense. Last night wasn't just a great night, it was HISTORICAL. These guys raised the bar.

WHO GIVES A CRAP! WE HAVE JUST WON 9 GAMES INCLUDING A BOWL ON NATIONAL TELEVISION. FRICKING PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MAKE EVERY DAMM THING ABOUT THE NAME SHOULD GO TO YOUR OWN BOARD AND LEAVE THE REST OF US ALONE.

Obviously not you. However, he makes some good points about branding. Every time ESPN screws up and uses "Lafayette" and the Lafayette Leopards logo it diminishes our brand and confuses the general public as to who we are. One of the benefits to being in a bowl game and on national TV is free publicity to spread the word about your program. Just as a billboard meant to advertise Ford would be worthless if it used a giant Chevy logo, the same is true for our brand when media outlets use " Lafayette" and a Leopard logo.

Playing in their first bowl game as a Division I FBS team, the Ragin Cajuns (9-4) led most of the way but fell behind 30-29 when Aztecs quarterback Ryan Lindley connected with Colin Lockett on a 12-yard touchdown strike with 35 seconds to go. Louisiana ...
