Louisiana will offer a sterner test for Rice than McNeese, which the Owls pounded 52-10 a week ago. Louisiana’s 15-game win streak is the longest active in FBS and the Ragin’ Cajuns continue to roll under first-year coach Mike Desormeaux. The visitors from Lafayette, La., are playing on the road for the first time this season. Coach Mike Bloomgren’s Owls are coming off their largest margin of victory in a home opener since 1970 when they routed VMI 42-10.1.
Louisiana is the reigning Sun Belt Conference champions and four-time defending champions of the West Division. That’s an indicator of the high quality of the program. Just last Saturday three East Division league members picked up significant victories. Appalachian State took care of Texas A&M . Marshall disposed of Notre Dame . And Georgia Southern knocked off Nebraska . A preseason pick to capture its division again, UL has wins in 2022 over Southeastern Louisiana and Eastern Michigan .
