9/6 Louisiana-Lafayette - Game Thread

[Houston Techsan]

I'm with dawg80 but go along and wear blue. I guess it's what I was used to way back when. It seems my first three years the home jerseys were red. One year they had blue (no white) UCLA shoulder stripes and my last year when they used red they were plain -- no stripes. We have used these blue jerseys a long time, even with the white and red UCLA shoulder stripes. First I really remember them was for our HC game against McNeese in 1968, so that's a pretty impressive tradition. I think sometime in the 80s or 90s they went to the arm stripes. Didn't last long.

Small correction. They have 2 sunbelt championships. Also, they also beat ECU and SDSU, both much better than Tulane.

They have two SBC titles which they shared with other teams (2005 with North Texas & ULM, 2013 with Arkansas State). Zero undisputed Sun Belt conference titles.

ULL's record against FBS AQ teams is 0-6 since 2011.

2011: lost to Oklahoma State 61-34, lost to Arizona 45-37
2012: lost to Oklahoma State 65-24, lost to Florida 27-20
2013: lost to Arkansas 34-14, lost to Kansas State 48-27

ULL's bowl record is:

2011: def. San Diego State 32-30 with a 50-yard FG as time expired (8-5 record, 4th best team in Mountain West Conference)
2012: def. East Carolina 43-34 (8-5 record, C-USA East Division Co-Champs)
2013: def. Tulane 24-21 after Tulane missed a FG as time expired (7-6 record, 4th best team in C-USA West Division)

A shared title is still a title nevertheless.

Would be nice if we got pictures/screen shots from someone.

Here are some pictures of the crowd in the new endzone seats in front of the tractor sheds, the home side, and the hill. These pictures were taken right before the game started.
