Big crowd expected for Southern at UL game

LAFAYETTE, Louisiana  – Add Southern University’s Jaguar Nation to an anticipated large Cajun Field crowd and UL head football Mark Hudspeth coach feels his team’s Saturday night 2014 season opener could be something special.

The last time Southern played UL in 2009, the 41,357 who witnessed the game set a Cajun Field single game attendance record.

Hudspeth said at his weekly Monday press luncheon that crowd record five years ago could be surpassed when the teams meet beginning at 6:05.

“There have been more than 100 requests for (recreation vehicle parking) for the game. Now tell me where you are going to find more RV’s at a single event .

“If we don’t blow (the Cajun Field attendance record) out of the water I’ll be shocked,” Hudspeth said.
