Some of our smaller Texas schools are filled with UT and A&M shirts all over campus (Texas State, Sam Houston, etc)...and I'd guess that ULALA and La Tech have a lot of closet LSU fans..but is the same true for Tulane?


I would say no. Tulanes gets a much higher precentage of students from out of state and LA kids that go to Tulane tend to not be big LSU fans to start with or stop being LSU fans once they go to Tulane.

Exactly. A large majority of Tulane's student body come from the NE region, and college football isn't a top priority for them. The hardcore, old time Tulane alum and fans though, by and large, despise LSU. At least in my opinion. There is still a level of "we are the educated elite, you are a football school". But if you really want to know about the Tulane hate for LSU, go read about the baseball games between the two that occurred over a period of a few years in the mid 2000's.

they were not in the closet when I was there.

I was one. We used to huddle around a radio and listen to LSU games, while we pretended to do our homework.
