The LSU-ULM "relationship" is essentially cool, no?

We are good with each other, aren't we? That corner of Louisiana has always been pro-LSU hasn't it? I've never noticed any real USL-level-little brother bed-wetting. I've always pulled for them, and assumed other LSU fans did too ...and found them to be the most pro-LSU of all the other State schools. We are simpatico, right? Was giving my piss balloon machine the week off, a tragic missed opportunity?



Am I off base here?

The only knock from ULM contingent is the fandom for LSU over ULM. Todd berry and the rebranding is helping build the fan base, but winning will be the real key.

Eta: no balloon level animosity in this game

NELa. has always been more loyal to LSU than vise versa...quite a few good athletes have been missed because of it too...think Elvin Hayes, for example...one of the best ever...jmho

Good point OP. I kinda like them too. They're respectful and Warhawks are LSU fans too.

The thing is, ULM and LSU are not rivals and will never be rivals. ULM is one level of football and LSU another. I enjoy ULM games when they play opponents within their conference, especially THE 'University of Louisiana' and enjoy LSU games when they play opponents which are SEC caliber.

Today is just a money game for ULM and will also allow give LSU an opportunity to play their backup players and give them a little experience. Hopefully ULM doesn't get too beat up and some freak accident doesn't sideline any LSU players for the season.

I don't know a ULM fan with isn't also a LSU fan and pull for LSU when they play. Neither teams football future will be determined by the game today and it's just something to watch and hopefully will be slightly entertaining.

Monroe is huge LSU town per capita. A lot of good looking women and good football talent come out of Monroe

Monroe -Ruston fan base has always been pro-LSU. And some of the best recruiting area in the land. Why do you think the midget from the east TRIES to recruit so heavy there.Ruston seems to be more pro LSU at the HS level,and do have some true tech fans. The smaller teams around NE La., put out talent too. Got to put that lock back on the gate in N.E. La., its too important to the Tigers. The fans around Monroe-West Monroe are all pro LSU then slide back to thier regional rivalries after that.

Lived there 20 years. Vast majority of ULM fans are LSU fans too. They hate Tech not us.
