BR/LSU and NO/Saints are a lot of the same people FWIW.

The only difference is the priority. The majority of people in Louisiana put LSU first and the Saints second, but there is a nice contingent that puts the Saints first and LSU second. That said, it's all the same group of people.

I love LSU and root for the Saints.

I think most people who were disappointed by the deal were disappointed because the state is still paying the Saints to be here while making huge cuts in education health care.

IMO those people aren't looking at the big picture - but I doubt the poll had anything to do with LSU/BR disliking NO/Saints.

right. The dividing line seems to be people from the NOLA area compared to everyone else in the state. People from NOLA tend to put the Saints first, the rest of the state puts LSU first.

Also, a higher % of Louisiana residents are LSU fans compared to Saints fans.

Do some people people in BR hate all things NOLA? yes. Same with some people in NOLA hating all things non-NOLA....the hate actually seems more prominent from the Nola folks.
