LOLOLOL you Aggies are so cute, USL was not a suitable replacement:
For most members of the Ragin' Cajuns' 1996 football team, the lasting image from then-USL's 29-22 upset victory over Texas A&M remains the goal post.
Students and fans swarming the field had already torn down the south-end post, and another group headed toward the north end for a similar prize. Meanwhile, those with the south post faced a dilemma.
"They tried to get it up the tunnel, and it wouldn't fit," said then-assistant coach Gerald Broussard. "So they just went up the hill."
The natural bowl of Cajun Field couldn't contain that kind of enthusiasm, as the student army took the post up the steep slopes, passed it over a metal fence and eventually out into the nearby streets.
