And, once again, if you find any mistakes, call Wikipedia this time. There's no mistaking the red and blue at Louisiana Tech. Since the Bulldogs first season in 1901, Louisiana Tech has compiled an all-time record of 562 wins, 427 losses, and 37 ties. In 110 football seasons, the Bulldogs have won three Division II national championships, won 25 conference championships, and played in 21 postseason games including 6 major bowl games. LA Tech has defeated at least one team from each of the current 11 FBS conferences, and LA Tech is the only team from a non-AQ conference to defeat an SEC champion in the BCS era as the Bulldogs defeated Alabama in 1999. Terry Bradshaw threw the first touchdown pass in Joe Aillet Stadium, a 5-yard hook-up with Buster Herren against East Carolina on September 28, 1968.
