re: Which win was a bigger deal in Louisiana? 2003 National Championship or Super Bowl XLIV?

Depends on which part of Louisiana you ask. People in the NOLA area care much more about the Saints than LSU while people in the BR area generally care more about LSU. I'm not sure about SW LA or North LA
I think aside from me being an alum and raised in a family of alums 15 minutes from campus, LSU pulling it off first made it more special. It was the first football title, pro or college, in the state in 45 years.
If you reverse it where the Saints won in 03 and 07 before LSU finally gets one in 09, I think it would be closer for more people. But it would still be LSU for me considering I was in school from 08-12 so I would have been a student at the time.

North LA was mostly Cowboys fans before 2009
