Honestly I wouldn't mind officially changing our name to the Bayou Bengals.


FYI, LSU is officially the Fighting Tigers and were named after a Confederate battalion that was renown for it's ferocity (thus, the nickname Fighting Tigers). So, the name has a much deeper meaning than simply an animal mascot and this would be totally lost calling us Bayou Bengals.

When I was a student at LSU back in the fall of '69, we played Auburn at home in a day game and they were calling themselves the Plainsmen. I guess it's getting near the time when they adopt a fourth mascot.
