Can Verne's replacement simply call us LSU?

Sure, it is technically Louisiana State University, but I personally like how we are one of the very few who are known by our acronym, LSU.
I know, it might seem silly, but Verne seemed to go out of his way to say the longer words.
Maybe it was his age.

Uh, Brad Nessler is arguably the greatest college football play-by-pay announcer in the business. Soooo...you might want to learn his name. He has covered LSU on multiple occasions over the years.
And yes, he has always referred to us as LSU.

Fail. Verne did that like one time. And you sound like a ULL-tard bitching about what we should be called.

I honestly hope that's the only thing to complain about this FB season

Verne will never be replaced.

uh. no. you fail. He did it a lot. Last week I watched a series of games I still had on TiVo. He did it many times.

OMFG how did you make it through the week? I bet you couldn't concentrate at work and had to call in sick for a few days.

I liked "Touchdown, Louisiana State University."
And maybe you've never heard of BYU, SMU, TCU, USC, UCLA, UNLV. People use those acronyms pretty often.

I'm with you. The people who bitch about him being pro-Alabama or pro-any team are mental midgets.

You poor dear!! So much trauma and drama in your life. I don't see how you manage to get through the day.

The under 40 crowd will never know how good Verne was in the 70s and 80s
Posted on 8/6/17 at 2:02 pm to THECEO
How about, "Touchdown! Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College!"

Verne was a fat, pants pissing disgrace. Nessler is an actual professional.

I think you have it backwards. Announcers use the acronyms, but don't often say Southern Methodist University, or Texas Christian, or University of California Los Angeles, or Nevada Las Vegas.
The OP doesn't like when Verne says Louisiana State University. And I don't either, to be honest.
