COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Louisiana enters at 4-2 overall and 3-0 at home, but it is coming off a loss. The Cajuns average 29.5 points and 382.2 total yards per game, with nearly balanced production through the air and on the ground. Troy is 3-2 overall, 3-0 at home, and 0-2 away, and it has won its last game. The Trojans average 28.0 points and 429.8 total yards per game, with a stronger rushing output than passing output. Troy has also been a strong under team this season, while Louisiana’s offense has been efficient enough at home to keep it in control of most games.
Louisiana should be the side to back in this game, with the home team projected to win 27-23. The Cajuns’ perfect home record, better scoring average, and superior market number at the best available book support a modest edge on the moneyline, while Troy’s road split is a concern in a game expected to stay competitive. The total projection sits around 50 points, but the cleaner position is Louisiana to win outright.
