The closest UL-LSU game in 86 years! Predictions?

[Trigger74]

By all rights the Tigers should win, but I'm a diehard Cajun and will go out on the limb: Cajuns 27 - Tigers 24.

UL will get 1.5 points for every million they spend on athletics and LSU will get .4 points for each mil.

Yes it does. You will see more and more attitudes change if we keep winning. If we don't win then "FIRE BUSTLE"!

On paper, I just don't feel like we can possibly win with their superior talent and depth. In my heart I will hope for a win. I will cheer like hell at the game too, but 17 points seems optimistic since we have never scored a touchdown at tiger stadium. However, they are not in championship form this year, and we have some confidence and experience going into this game so I would like to think it could be a close game for at least 3 quarters. If we come to play and they get lazy maybe we can scare them. But we can't have a turnover margin and almost no points in the second half and expect to be competitive. 38-13 LSU is my much begrudged pick. I love my team, but I live in the real world. 21 -10 at halftime but they wear us down and get a defensive td late to push up the score.

This is a money game, plain and simple. Should LSU blow us out? yes. If we can get out of the next two games with minimal injuries, I'll be happy with any score. There is a difference between being a fan and being a realistic fan. I would love to see the cajuns get a win in tiger stadium, hell I told my girlfriend that if we won I would probably be MIA for a couple of days because I would be losing my s H i T! But realisticly are we going to win? Probably no. NO INJURIES = Victory in my book.

I don't believe you should go into a game thinking there is no way you can win. I know it will be a small miracle but they do happen. "Do you believe in miracles"?

You are confusing fans with players. If our players are going into games with the thought that they will lose even though they know the odds are long of a victory, you have the wrong players in uniform. However, as fans it seems pretty logical in the course of things to understand that you just don't have the talent to match up to a team like LSU and that a loss and a rather large one can be accepted. As long as our players keep playing and don't quit and show some sack, I'm happy to get out with minimal injuries.

As I previously said. There are some fans that can't see the forest for the trees, then others that can look at a schedule and say "99.9% chance we won't win that one." It doesn't make me less of a fan or any less supportive of the cajuns. Again, do I want to win? Of course. Do I think we will win? no.


No Injuries = win.

Beating LSU and going 5-7 does nothing for me. I'm thinking bowl game.
