The annual competition will have two divisions: one for students and the other for the public. The event will have guest judges including ULM Homecoming King and Queen, Jesse Drake and Raquel Franklin.

The ULM Alumni Association will also feature new merchandise for purchase at the game. According to Sara Siereveld, ULM Alumni Director, items feature t-shirts, sweatshirts, fleece zip-ups, and more that are branded "ULM Alumni". Items can be purchased in person on the day of the game or on the alumni webpage at the following link:
