The Ragin' Cajuns lost their first Sun Belt matchup to in-state rival UL-Monroe. The Warhawks won 21-17. This was their first victory against the Cajuns in Monroe since 2004.
According to reports, a Monroe man was arrested on Animal Cruelty charges after taking home the wrong dog from a local pet groomer. Apparently the man punched and kicked the small dog after being bit, leading to the animal's eventual death.
You may remember the family in Monroe who got internet famous last year with their Christmas light show that was synched up to the Garth Brooks classic "Callin' Baton Rouge." Well, the family is back it again this year, but with some upgrades.
