I remember that stadium! That's where we kicked the Cajun's ass from one endzone to the other in front of all our recruits there on OohLaLa's dime!
Dunno who UL is tho...that's not Louisville's field.
I do call BS!
If you break down the rankings, Tech is better in 3 of the 5:

ULL - 127
Baseball:

Good old Memorial Gym
Did you happen to see the tweet Ben McDonald sent to the LSU Sid during the super regional (that's something in post season baseball) I only saw Ben's side the first one said "I will call them ul the hat says ul the helmet says ul. If they wanted me to call them ULL they would have that on their uniform". A few minutes later he said " the legislature is not playing baseball if they were I would call them what is on their uniform".
I have never seen one officially licensed piece of merchandise the school puts out with ULL on it but when I do then I will no longer call them ul. Who am I or anyone on this board to dictate to a university hundreds of mile away what you have to call yourself. If what the school is doing is illegal then someone would stop them right ?

If you rob that liquor store right in front of the people who make the laws and enforce them and you do not get arrested, then it maybe legal where you are. We all know that will never happen. If you break the law in this country you are stopped and you pay the price. I don't know of anyone who can repeadly break a law that every law maker can see for 15 years and not be stopped. Obviously what the school in Lafayette is doing is not perceived as breaking the law by the law makers and enforcers.
Thanks for the great analogy to help prove my point.
But for @ Lafayette to use their "preferred" name is illegal and unethical. How the @ Lafayette administration has allowed and promoted the usage of UL and/or Louisiana is unbelievable to me. It seems they would be honest and use the name they agreed to when lobbying for the name change law. How they have been allowed to get away with it is also unbelievable to me.
. . . cuz one of their alum is chairman of the ULS board of trustees.
