DATELINE: Ruston, LA
The Louisiana State Police today had to call in for mutual aid from the Louisiana and Mississippi National Guards to quell the massive celebration that has been going on since late yesterday afternoon after Louisiana Tech's mighty Bulldogs shocked the nation, and a crowd of several, be actually beating A BIG 10 TEAM in the all-important Heart of Dallas Bowl. A BIG 10 TEAM!!
From his office in Baton Rouge, Gov. Jindal, said "yes, beating A BIG 10 TEAM is the greatest thing that has ever happened, especially one as mighty as 6-7 Illinois, after all they almost beat Purdue, but really we have to all calm down and get back to work." Across town at LSU, Coach Miles said that his #22 Tigers would "try as hard as they can" to not be distracted by the amazing LTU triumph from its prep for the Music City Bowl versus non-Big 10 team Notre Dame, but added "its really hard, after all A BIG 10 TEAM, especially one that finished 8th in that awesome conference and made its lowest bowl slot, that really tops anything. I just hope the fans of Tiger Nation come back next fall" .
From Memphis, where he is prepping for his last days at WVU before taking over at the NCAA, Ollie Luck added, "A BIG 10 TEAM, especially one that is 6-7 and almost beat Purdue and was bowl eligible because they really did beat Youngstown State, wow. I was wrong. A BIG 10 TEAM!!!. When I get to the NCAA, I am going to insure that this mighty event is taken and the system is reformed. I think that really CUSA should get a slot in the Rose Bowl from now on. After al ILLINOIS!!. Wow."
Meanwhile the celebrations, going all across north Louisiana continue. Unlike some places, no vandalism, such as couch burning, has gone on, but the massive crowds, some singing, some crying, some simply over-come with emotions brought the entire area to a halt. I-20 remains closed by chains of Bulldog fans, arm in arm, simply dancing and celebrating beating A BIG 10 TEAM!!! Shouts of "how 'bout that Big 10" have been heard from Shreveport all the way to Tunica.
Speculation has boy genius coach Skip Holtz up for every vacancy in not only the NCAA, but for the 49er and Bear jobs. His father, was quoted as saying "ithh thinkth thatth heth canth do abouth anythinth, I amth soth proudth" followed by some other things we really didn't understand and a 40 minute rhapsody about Notre Dame.
Motorists, especially those with plates from Big 10 states, are advised to avoid the area.
Meanwhile, in Cross Lanes, a columnist hack for the Huntington paper wrote, once again, about how much more he knows about running MU football than those that do. The Pulitzer committee was FedExed a copy of the tome.
