I said nothing about RPI. Young man, I am from Lafayette and I know how it is.

How do you figure? If your series is tied after Saturday, the Sunday game still only counts as one game. A win against #1 is better than a win against #21.

As for our inflated ego, I'll remind you that we don't have to read about you and your fans, we experience you all too often. You may tell yourself that beating Bama on Sunday is more important than beating LSU tomorrow, but that doesn't make it so. And the reality is that the LSU game should be more important to you. LSU is not only ranked higher, but most of your fan base lives and works around a whole lot more LSU fans than Bama fans.

I knew what you meant.

If ULL wins the game, which is certainly possible considering this is baseball and ULL is very good, it will be featured on the front page of the Advertiser. If LSU wins, it will be on the sports page of the Advocate, where it belongs.

The RPI formula takes into account series wins. It is part of the calculation. A series win is more important than 1 game. Although I agree, I'd love to knock off #1 LSU.

So now an LSU fan is telling a UL fan that this game SHOULD BE OUR WORLD SERIES. You guys are a bunch of clowns. First you criticize those of us who think this way, then you tell others that don't think this way that they should be?!

Haha, wow.

I want to beat LSU, of course. Not gonna deny that. But to say that it's our "world series" is just a projection from your fan base to make it seem like that's all we think about. This isn't football… we have beat LSU in baseball plenty of times in the past… if we do it again tomorrow night it would be cool… season goal? No. If we lose, so be it, we have a big weekend series coming up next weekend. We'll probably meet again in the post season anyway.

If LSU wins it'll still be on the front page of the Advertiser.

Most likely with a glaring typo.

You laugh but last season when LSU beat ULLLL in Lafayette 11-2, the ULLLL athletic website showed the game score as "W 11-2" for about 3 days before it was corrected. It had its own thread on the Rant.

Sadly that doesn't surprise me.

They struggle to get the correct game times on the site, asking them to get the correct score and outcome might be too much.

And I'm a Cajun fan, fwiw.

Just not crazy about the baseball die hards over here.

You can treat the game how ever you fricking like. I would argue that pointing out that one game against LSU is bigger than one game against Bama is not the same as treating either as YOUR WORLD SERIES.

To suggest that LSU fans are clowns for pointing out how irrational your fans are when it comes to LSU is pretty funny. Remember, you are the ones that took down all of the Yvette Gerard plaques because she had the nerve to go to LSU. I'm sure you would have also done that had she taken the Bama job. Your fricking university is obsessed with LSU. Feel free to insert another inflated ego comment, but I have dealt with this obsession for 20 years.

All this bickering is making the ULL fans think their program is on equal footing with LSU baseball.

I'm just not crazy about it.
