This topic is almost as tireless as the nola vs BR threads that pop up all the time. Make them stop.

I'm not taking it as a dig at all. I just don't see the point in acting like you can accurately gauge a team's potential when you don't even really follow that team or conference.


I don't follow the SWAC very closely but I can still say pretty accurately that none of those teams are going to reach Omaha.

The difficulty of the task we are discussing dictates that you can make such a blanket statement. It has very little to do with the specific team or conference named.

I really can't believe how pathetic they are in trying to convince people they are "Louisiana" From their websites to their uniforms to their hats. It's really quite sad really.

Almost as sad as their arguments that LSU stole the word "Geaux" from them and Florida stole the name "The Swamp"........ Great stuff

The SWAC? Really?

The Cajuns play in the Sun Belt, one of the top 5 leagues every season. Quit acting like a little bitch.

Why does ULL ULM play 2 conference series vs each other?


Who cares what they call themselves? If they call themself ULL, USL. UL. Louisiana, the greatest, or the Reds it will not change your life so get over it.

Everyone in the Sun Belt plays two conference series against their rival.

I don't remember all the reallignment, but the old series were FAU/FIU, ULL/ULM, UALR/ASU, etc.

I forgot the reasoning why, but they've been doing it for a few years now.

Someone told UL-L to sit down. Thats the only thing that explains their recent reversal on the naming issues.

Someone with pull sat them down and told them to abandon it, only explanation.

The Sun Belt is usually a top 5-8 conference in baseball according to conference RPI. Finished 5th last season and got 4 teams into regionals. It's not the ACC but it's a good baseball conference.
