There is no school called “LSU.” It’s LSU A&M and will always be LSU A&M. But you know the difference? We don’t care that you shorten your abbreviation because it’s not a first world problem like you claim it is when we do it. And please allow ULM to try it with their “case” so the rest of the country can once again laugh at this state for wasting taxpayer money on ridiculousness.

I will say USL


I call em ‘Lafayette’ or ‘That school in Lafayette’ because for some reason they are embarrassed by it being in the name of their school so much that they pretend it isn’t there

Part of the original UL agreement is that no school would identify themselves as anything other than that schools official name. They have a case here. It’s time to exercise it.


This rule was put in place by LSU people in Baton Rouge. You see, USL at the time wanted to be called "Louisiana" and Baton Rouge rejected it...because I mean what other state has a school called after the state and then a state school? Crazy frickers from Lafayette. Anyway, so USL accepted this bull shite agreement from the brass at LSU all along knowing they would not follow this absurd shite from the get-go.

Hence the UL system of schools was created in an effort by Baton Rouge and LSU to prevent any school from calling itself "Louisiana"....well that went well for them, and now all the butt hurt LSU fans call Louisiana, USL, to show just how butt hurt they really are about the whole situation.

Does that sum it up?

Well we played Minnesota last year and our talented rookie QB's mom started shopping him around to Big 10 teams right after it..

Maybe the lesser exposure of an ACC game will help keep a player or two here for an extra year

BUMP.

Michigan State is evidently the team that "wimps out" and cancelled the game.

quote:

Michigan State, which formally canceled a Sept. 14 game against Louisiana, will pay Prairie View A&M $500,000 for playing at Spartan Stadium that same date and Louisiana will get $600,000 after it swapped out playing in East Lansing for a game at Wake Forest on Sept. 28, according to documents obtained by MLive via a Freedom of Information Act request.

I bet Wake is offering a home and home and with the new renovations being done to the Swamp, it’s a perfect opportunity to show off the new stadium on national TV against a P5 opponent.

That would be awesome, but doubtful. Michigan State cancelled on us, so we were able to fill with another P5 opponent.

Discovered through FOIA

So it appears that the truth is Michigan St has opted out.
