Louisiana vs. Grambling: Attendance 28,866

[Big Buds]

It stopped raining around 3:00 and never rained a drop during or after the game until early morning. I know because I live in the shadow of the stadium. Great weather for a game. cool and calm......so if you don't come to the game because of rain, that was a poor excuse.

It rained for a few hours straight before the game and then again prior to and about 30 minutes after kickoff. Temperature was great but disagree with your assessment of the rain.

Yes, because if I'm an employer I'd be thrilled to death to know that that engineering graduate that I think was a "B" student was actually a "C" student who liked attending football games. Exactly the qualifications I'm looking for when hiring for my mission critical project.

Yes because a persons life productivity should be judged by if they were a “B” or “C” student based off of a system made up by other people. If you are looking at someone’s grades when hiring someone you are doing it wrong anyway

So, you're telling me, in general, there is no difference between the "A" student and the "C" student. I certainly agree that grades are not the only consideration, but they are part of it. And, as an employer, I would want to know that the grade was based in part on sports attendance.

This...and id hope a manager at an engineering firm can get a good grasp on ones work before getting to final design review stage...

So then all those students burning the midnight oil should just mellow out, because their grades really don't matter.....

Here's a couple of more reasons why attendance was low...IMO:

1.Labor Day weekend. Lots of people went away for the weekend.
2.FCS. I don't care who the FCS opponent is, it's still FCS. Hard to get excited.

Hats off to Grambling...they traveled well. Good luck the rest of your season.

Yes that’s exactly what I’m telling you...in life do they hide the book from you? Do you have to memorize everything at your job? Or just know how to find the info?

Grades certainly matter, but a very successful business man once told me that he would much prefer to hire an average student that had social skills and got involved in various school activities, rather than a straight A student that did nothing but keep their nose knee deep in books all the time and did very little else.

I was looking through some box scores for fun. I noticed we outdrew rice vs Houston at rice. They had 26 and change. The schools are like 2 miles apart. I guess Houston fan don’t travel well😂
