Because ULM is a joke athletically and academically


Athletically right now yes, but ULM has better programs and professional schools than ULL and that’s a fact.

From an engineering standpoint La Tech is woefully underappreciated in the state of Louisiana. However nationally it punches above its weight academically.

I like that they are trying to pretend “whatever their name is” has a chance against Texas.

UL-M’s health science college is legit. Their pharmacy college is still solid. Their accounting department in the college of business is solid.

Wait, you’re a ULL alum and an LSU fan?

Sad!

Their construction management is also top 10 in the country as well as their risk management and insurance program. I’ll give it to Bruno he really helped the school grow academically and it looks way better than it did before he got there. But he put athletics in the gutter.

You didn't say that, though. LSU is the worst school in the SEC academically. So trying to argue between LSU/ULL, etc is a lost cause. The moment Tulane wants to value football, LSU's brand will suffer.

It's so cringeworthy what ULL did. It reeks of inferiority complex

False. We are #11. We’re ahead of Ole Miss, state and Arkansas.

Well it’s Louisiana that’s not surprising. People pump truck loads of cash into athletics and nada back into academics. The new engineering building at LSU is nice I will add.

Yeah our official name is Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College. LSU for short.

ULL is the University of Louisiana Lafayette. Your official name was never, ever Louisiana. It's a stupid branding thing you do. I wish ULM would start using Louisiana to weaken your brand.


LSU for short? And who did that? LSU.

We did the same. The difference is that we don’t throw toddler fits like your post above. We kindly mind our own business.

I grew up an LSU fan, as most in Louisiana do, yet decided to attend college at USL.

Can I fill you in on any other shocking bits of info?

Been saying this for years.

All 4 year universities not named LSU, La Tech, UL and the HBCUs need to be shrunk into 2 year campuses that feed into their respective universities.

NW St, ULM and LSUS feed LA Tech.

Mcneese and Nichols feed UL.

SELU and UNO feed LSU.

There’s no damn reason Louisiana needs as many 4 year universities as they have. This would help with budget issues and would give the state 3 major athletic programs to put all their focus on. Most of which still going to LSU.

We live in a backwards state and focus on things that are counterproductive or don’t matter.
