Not often I get a chance to see my alma mater play, and I can't remember the last time I saw them play in Monroe. After having been disappointed so many times, I come in to the game negatively, expecting them to lay an egg tonight with the nation watching. They have had two good runs, but against Arkansas, it was against a very poorly coached team who only had their starting QB play for one half, and against Auburn, the jury might be out on the quality of the coach, but the team is not good. And we still lost.

Anyway, I have a rare night where I do not have kids' activities, not going to high school football, and will be watching. I'm hoping it's an entertaining game. Game is at Malone Stadium, which only seats 30,500, and is an unusual stadium--it looks half finished. One side, the home side, looks like a real football stadium. The East side for the visitors almost looks like a high school stadium visitor's side.

Tonight is "white-out" night, and hopefully everybody will be engaged. Here's a "home grown" t-shirt someone created for their little group.

Good luck to your ULM boys tonight D!!! Isn't it ironic that they are a "underdog" to OleDon's Baylor Bears. I'll be switching between that game and the high school game on ESPN2. Louisville Trinity vs Indianapolis Cathedral.

I will tune in. What does a Warhawk look like anyway?

Can not believe they overturned that and called it an incomplete pass. No way they should have overturned the ruling on the field

I have smiled thinking about that myself.

ULM was outmanned, and fell by 5. Probably outmanned on the same order UK was outmanned to Florida today.

I like Kolton Browning a lot, and their RBs are good, but it's a case of heart, scheming, and maximizing what you have. They're still 1-2, and the win against Arkansas is looking very weak now. I would not be surprised to see them fail to finish in the top 3 of the Sun Belt Conference, with Western Ky and Troy both being leading candidates to beat them, and another one could slip in.

But still, they've played 3 competitive games against two SEC teams and a Big 12 team who has won 9 consecutive games now. That's not all bad. Wish UK was playing the same way with our players. We'd be no worse than 3-1 now if we did (IMHO).
