LMAO Prior to that, it was called the Grambling/Southern game and it was handled as any other game where it was held in Grambling one year and Southern the next...
Who's hating? If it's not LA... I don't recognize it! They simply cannot compare/compete!

My point is that I don't remember BC being as big a deal (outside of SU/GSU fans) when I was in college in the late 1970s/early 1980s. I believe the game at one point was played at Tulane, but I don't remember when it went to the Super Dome. It definitely did not have State Farm as a sponor.
SWAC rivalries have existed for decades. I can appreciate all of them. But for me none compare to JSU/ASU, whether it is called a classic or a regular end-of-season matchup.
Continue to support the BC. We'll see if your Louisiana schools will be worthy this year. I think I hear those 'skeeters buzzing again.
