adversity arms bowl city everybody gone home hosting opening orleans teams thankful
With all the adversity that everybody in New Orleans has gone through, I'm thankful to the city of Lafayette for opening their arms up to this bowl and hosting this game. Because if those things don't happen, there are two teams that are at home today.

It was obvious this was our first game.
