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.

And maybe you've never heard of BYU, SMU, TCU, USC, UCLA, UNLV. People use those acronyms pretty often.

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

How about, "Touchdown! Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College!"

I don't think he put any thought into it, he was just trying to fill time. It's a lazy announcer habit, just like some say "national football league" instead of NFL. They're just trying to fill air time while they think of something interesting to say.

Wow, some people will really bitch about anything.
Hope you don't lose too much sleep over this.

I thought his "Touchdown Louisiana State" calls were great ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/icons/shrug.gif)

Verne sucked but I honestly could give a shite what they call us as long as we win. Most times I mute the tv and listen to LSU radio broadcast.
