The newspaper editor for the school wrote this in this weeks preview of the UL/LSU game. He's serious and obviously doesn't know a thing about football.


"Arguably our biggest game all year, the game we've all been waiting for, UL versus LSU. The Cajuns have been impressive thus far. The offense is showing no hiccups, even with all the new faces. The defense has been playing steady, but still needs to find itself earlier in games. The Tigers are not playing up to expectations. They are playing down to their opponents level. They are coming out flat, but they are still winning. That ends on Saturday as Masson and Sails will lead the Cajuns to a victory in a nail-biter,21-19."

I picked this up this morning and thought I should share.

I'm actually going to agree with you here. Though i don't think that ULL will win. The above quote from the paper does contain truth

Does that mean we have to run backwards against USL?

287 yards of offense and 17 points last week isn't exactly lighting up scoreboards.
Last time ULL came here, was it '06? We heard how high powered that offense was. They were limited to a field goal. Once again, the 2009 ULL offense will disappoint in Tiger Stadium.

Also, ULL is getting dominated in time of possession. Yes, even against Southern. This may turn out to be a good thing for the Peppers. If Les knows he can put up some 6 or 7 minute drives he will and the score won't get to out of hand.

Again....

957-22.

That's the total score of all games combined between LSU and UL-L. You guess which one we are.

The last sentence destroys his whole quote. If all of what he is saying is true besides that, then that makes him sound delusional and to me, it sounds like he doesn't know much about the game

This has nothing to do with Vandy.

That stat line is from ULL's higher powered clicking on all cylinders offense.

What do you guys expect him to say, "We're going to lose"? He writes for the ULL paper!

As an aspiring sports writer, I've been saying this dude's writing is shite for the past 2 years. This cat said the titans didn't deserve to be the last undefeated team in pro ball last year because they didn't throw it enough. I'm sorry, but football is based on ball control and defense.

Just what I would expect from the student newspaper of Remedial U.
