Notably, they don't have to play Georgia Southern and Georgia Southern appears to be the toughest potential competition in the Sun Belt.

    You take the three previous seasons and the Cajuns were 1 - 2 each time against non conference FBS competition during the regular season. This time they're 0 - 3. But maybe Louisiana Tech (in spite of the loss to Northwestern State in association with 5 turnovers) is better than 5-7 Kent was in 2011, 2-10 Tulane was in 2012, or 5-7 Akron was in 2013.

    Time will tell. Louisiana Tech this year could very well be better than the teams the Cajuns beat in non conference regular season play during the previous three years.
    Or that we had 3 turnovers including a pick 6 in that game to go along with giving up 5 big plays three of which resulted in TDs.

    8 plays cost the Cajuns the game against La Tech.

    To be somewhat fair ... TB had a better completion % and QB ratings than Blaine in 2012, and I think 2013 as well.

    However ... what Blaine could do is make the completions when it counted. Blaine might have a few passes sail that should have been completions ... but then the next drive make 6 straight completions and move the ball down the field in a less than a minute when it counted. Even when TB has thrown good he's never executed the kind of drives Blaine did in 2011/2012.
