The University of Louisiana at Monroe says ULM is fine with them and they are going for it as their brand. The University of Louisiana is not fine officially with ULL. Heck the school website is http://www.louisiana.edu. I'm not one to really push the issue. You can't control what others call you but if you really want to tick a Cajun fan off then call us ULaLa. Read the link about the name battle. I would actually like use to go back to USL but for it to stand for the University of South Louisiana. ULM could go for the University of North Louisiana. I may give ULM a hard time sometimes but it's more like brotherly ribbing. I don't hate ULM and wish them to drop down. I would like to be in a different conference. I think that would be best for both schools.

RE: What's the difference between Georgia State and Georgia Southern?
I think I can see ULL's situation. It is sort of like when people say UNC-Chapel Hill. It just sounds silly because everybody associates UNC with the Tarheels. UNC-Charlotte and the others are like the junior schools. For instance, nobody at Tennessee feels the need to specify their location, lest they be confused with the school in Chattanooga. The issue is whether the schools in Lafayette and Monroe are equal partners in the same system or if one is a subsidiary of the other.

RE: What's the difference between Georgia State and Georgia Southern?
Georgia Southern is a former agricultural and mechanical institution located in the middle of nowhere Georgia that is a regional masters-level institution. They have a CWS apperance to their name and won six national championships in I-AA/FCS after restarting their program in the early 80's. Their student makeup consists of mostly white rednecks. They play football in a nice, little stadium where it's hot most of the time.

Georgia State is a research-level institute located in the middle of Atlanta somewhere between the Georgia Tech and Abdullah's House of Ribs and Chinese Food. They started their football program a few years ago to disasterous results. Thier makeup of student body is mostly minorities and professional degree students. They play football in Da Dome, a building that is on borrowed time, in front of a red sea of empty seats.

First off don't call us ULL. If you can't call us UL, University of Louisiana at Lafayette will do.

Totally newbie question and not ment to offend: Why not? It fits right?

I see the link on the battle, but it is blocked for me.

The university is The University of Louisiana at Lafayette(ULL) athletically they are Louisiana or Louisiana's Ragin Cajuns.

Try this one
www.ull.edu

Now for the Fact check:
- ULM started in 1931 as Junior College and became a 4-yr college in 1953
- We not only played 1-AA ball in the SLC, we won the I-AA national champtionship
- Enrollment is actually 8.400

Other Facts:

- School mascot was the "Indians" until politics got involved and changed to "Warhawks"

- Are the current National Collegiate Champions in both Water Skiing and Fishing

- Bayou Desiard runs right through the middle of the campus and is where the 23 time national champions water ski team practices

- Beautiful women......4 of the last 5 Miss Louisiana's, including the current winner, are all ULM students.

For the same reason your athletics are known as Georgia Southern and not GSU. The University of Louisiana@Lafayette has branded their athletics as Louisiana.

they are both good universities. Both are ranked in the top five for water skiing. One is located in the heart of Cajun country the other in southern Arkansas. They should finish 1&2 in football in the conference.

The difference is that ULM will beat you by 50 and the Cajuns will beat you by 51.

Rev,

I've created a lovely mnemonic to help me remember

"Down in ole Dixie, where siblings do mate
live toothless hillbillies who fish with no bait
Whether Eagles from Southern or Panthers from State
The distance between 'em is two hundred and eight"

One will be Sun belt football conference champs in 2014, one will not. The triple option will take the conference by storm.

You better have a plan "B". The triple option isn't going to fly on this level.
