As Mike Desormeaux listed the goals this season for UL's football team, the senior quarterback's first answer made sense.

Goal No. 1: Win the Sun Belt outright.

That was scratched from the record with a 48-3 loss to Troy on Nov. 22.

Goal No. 2: Earn the program's first bowl berth in 38 years.

That objective remains a possibility as the Cajuns (5-6 overall, 4-2 Sun Belt) wrap up the regular season tonight against Middle Tennessee (5-6, 3-3) at Cajun Field looking to snap a three-game losing streak. The game will air live on Cox4.
