BB Final: Louisiana 1, Tech 6

[Big Buds]

That Tech writer is very small in the grand scheme of things. His base is what, maybe 50 Technical Ruston fans? On the other hand d1baseball got it right in his blurb on the game - at least in the body portion - despite being at the game and exposed to that bush-league T-ball operation at that shack.

GEAUX Golden Eagles this weekend!

Was there another runner on base in that video? (Besides the guy rounding 3rd) It looks like nobody actually touched home plate.

They damn near had a dog pile after that one.

That catch in center would have been very impressive had he come down with it.

It was designed that way to promote infighting amongst the non Refinery universities. Divide and conquer without the Refiners ever getting dirty.

Refineryville didn't need to promote infighting amongst UL-System siblings, they were constantly on the phone calling Baton Rouge and complaining about their big brother UL in Lafayette. In Louisiana culture like many other places, it's much easier to complain and create obstacles for those that are more successful rather than working harder or smarter to better yourself.

Runners were on first and 2nd after an intentional walk.

Yes - the catch in center was possible - and would have been a VERY impressive catch. Can't fault him for not making that play.

I figured such...just couldn't remember.

No faulting here...that was a tough play to make.

To you crazy @ruston trolls. The problem isnt with fans calling us whatever. It's with the classless way your "university" has treated our preferred name. Lafayette is unacceptable because it is not the name of the university. And it has nothing to do with how we feel about our city. Most people who live here LOVE our city and I am proud that the University of Louisiana is in Lafayette.

That being said, Happy St. Patrick's Day and Geaux F yourselves.

Great post. I'll only add that Lafayetteans are not the only ones who love our city: we have plenty of tourists and others who recognize what a great city this is. Compare that to Ruston, a town no one wants to visit much less move to. And that, my friend, is a MAJOR part of the @ruston mutts: JEALOUSY and ENVY.

Tech is just like ULM. CUSA - at this point - would be a lateral move. I think our next conference move should be to the AAC.

Who in the world has us #9 ?

--OK let's just go to a factual present check

a move to CUSA would be a down move dipping 2 places in Football conference rankings and in basketball it would be a 6 place drop---Guess it is early for baseball but will edit this!!! OOps --Cusa is 2 places ahead but we do have the defending National champs in our conference!!!
