** LU vs Nicholls State Game Thread ... LU wins 56-34!! **

[Cardinalrule]

Where's all the folks who griped about Lamar being ranked ahead of Nicholls in the power rankings? For those who say winning a conference game is no big deal because you don't respect the competition, that is lame. Nicholls has had some nice outings this year and a conference win is a big deal. We won't win conference this year but we are showing improvement at last and that's kind of what we've been looking for, isn't it? At the end of the year they total up all the "W"s and "L"s and see where everyone falls. There are no style points. Do we get L+ for pushing SAM to the limit? No. Do we get an W- because we played Nicholls? No. I'm happy for the Cards and it's even more impressive considering the players that weren't on the field.

I am here and accounted for!! My point, after finding ways to lose, until we find a way to win and beat someone then we should be last! Show that we deserve to be rated ahead instead of being rated based on unrealized potential from what it looks like on paper!! Now that we beat Nicholls, we deserve to be ahead of them but not NW State who beat UCA!! Also, according to the poll we beat a team that we were suppose to beat. A sure sign of progress is that we beat 1 or more teams that we are suppose to lose too!! AKA what SELA is doing this year in the second year of a coaching change!!!
