Man, that was fun to watch. As well as I’ve ever seen a Cajuns team play.

Not many complaints except that bad holding call on Carter.

Just need to keep it up for 5 more games.

I’ll give the stadium experience some credit today. I had rain gear in a pouch. Thought for sure they would give me crap about the pouch being a “not clear bag” but the guy just squeezed it a couple times to make sure there were no weapons then let me in no problem.

Crowd was ok considering weather expectations.

Band sounded and looked good. There were no lines for beer, the bathroom, and even when I grabbed boudin at halftime. The isle police didn’t check tickets everytime and hold up flow.

A negative but not UL’s fault
The espn+ commercial breaks are ridiculously long at the game. That really needs to be addressed in the off season. Most of the time there’s no ads running during them anyway.

Nothing we can do about the advertising breaks. Not unless the SBC steps in and says to run PiP or split screen ads without stopping game play, for non linear TV games. Which I think should be done regardless, it works for Futbol.

The in game experience hasn’t been bad at all for 6pm kickoffs.

Still think the no umbrella rule is crazy. 100% chance is rain in the forecast and you’d like the be prepared for the walk back to the car. There was a graveyard of umbrellas at one of the entrances.

The staff were professional about it, but still.

You can't see the game with an open umbrella sitting in front of you.

Umbrella bans were instituted for the wet guy behind you.

I get that. It was for the walk back to the car in case of rain. We were going to get out of dodge quick. Possession of an umbrella invites the chance to use it. Sure. It was just a thing.

Honestly, though. Would you have blocked that many people if you did open it up in the stadium.

[Cajunrunner]

Do we need to sign Des to a 5 yr contract with a huge buy out??

I take back anything negative i ever said about Des being our coach!!

Lock him down!!

I don't think Dez is going anywhere. We can go 15-0 next season, and he'll probably just chill here.

There are pictures from the 70's with umbrellas in use.

Nobody blocked, probably due to "Can you move over please? "
