I wonder if other schools in California, especially those in the UC system ridicule UC-Berkeley for claiming the name California or Cal.

So why do we include the Monroe for Louisiana-Monroe? ULM doesn't have insecurity problems is why.

Come on now, don't mock them. They legally changed their name. Please respect them and call them by their legal name, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette

I agree. Show a little respect. I've been a Bulldogs fan for years

I still call them SLI, but I'm old school.

ULL is not even the oldest school in the University of Louisiana System. Northwestern and La Tech were founded before it. The other UL System schools did now spawn off from ULL. ULL is not the flagship of the UL System. This is much different that Cal, or Texas or Tennessee. ULL trying to act like they are similar to those schools and call themselves UL is completely ridiculous.

In the UC system or the UT system, those "flagship" schools were the original school in the system. Cal was the first school founded in the UC system. The other school were subsidiary schools over time that branched of of Cal. Same with Texas. Texas is known simply as "University of Texas" b/c thats what it originally was before smaller schools spawned from it. Now its technically the "University of Texas-Austin" but still known by original name. ULL doesn't have that history of being UL, nor is it the flagship of the system like the other major universities they try to liken their name to.

Didn't you forget @ Baton Rouge?

Like most LSU fans, you probably never obtained a diploma from that University. If you did happen to have a diploma then you would realize that @ Baton Rouge is not on the document.

Don't get the ULL hate we don't compete with them in anything. I could understand if the games ever had something at stake but they never do.

Football- not on same level don't, fight over recruits, don't play them every year.

Baseball- Don't fight over same recruits, ULL has not been relevant in years. Once again not on same level

Basketball- who cares

For these reasons I usually hope ULL wins when not playing LSU.
