Can Louisiana Stay Unbeaten In Conference Play?

So far this season, there is one undefeated team in Sun Belt Conference play. That team is the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns, who have gone 6-1 overall and 3-0 in Sun Belt competition. They have beaten Southern Miss, App State, and Coastal Carolina by 10 points each and will look to continue their conference winning streak by winning outright as an underdog on the road against Texas State. But for that to happen, the Ragin’ Cajuns defense will need to prevent Texas State quarterback Jordan McCloud from making too many plays with his legs, as McCloud has a rushing score in three straight games for the Bobcats.

Texas State Facing Must-Win Situation

Texas State got off to a great start this season and looked like they could not just win the Sun Belt, but represent the Group of Five in the College Football Playoff. They have since cooled off, though, entering this game at 4-3 overall and 2-1 in the Sun Belt. Texas State has to get a win at home here, as a loss would put them two games behind Louisiana in their division within the Sun Belt, which would put them in a bad spot in terms of qualifying for the conference title game.

Louisiana vs Texas State Betting Pick

Going into this Louisiana vs Texas State showdown in the Sun Belt, the Texas State defense has stepped up in a big way in recent weeks. They have allowed just 16.6 points per game over their last three games, going 2-1 during that span. Here, we expect the Bobcats to once again rise to the challenge on defense, as they should win and cover the spread in a game that they absolutely need to help their Sun Belt title hopes.
