It is earlier but here are some stats that stand out from the Georgia Southern game.
6 tackles for a loss is the highest of the season
3 sacks are tied for the highest of the season
4 quarterback hurries are 2nd highest this season
Ragas, Mitchell, and Calais combined for 248 yards on the ground and 5 yards through the air. They combined for 253 total yards, 1 more yard than the Georgia Southern combined.
More season stats.
The Cajuns are 27 for 32 in the RedZone, with 1 of 32 being at the end of the 1st half vs Texas Southern when we did not try to score. The Cajuns have 25 touchdowns in their 27 scoring drives in the RedZone.
Stevie Artigue is 28 for 28 in extra-point tries.
Red-shirt Sophomore Andre Jones leads the team in tackles for a loss. This young man is going to be a beast.
Jacques Boudreaux leads the team in solo tackles (17) and assists (16). He was just named SBC Player of the Week with 6 solo tackles and 6 assists.
Andre Jones looks to be a revelation at DE. Also, Hutchinson and Wilkerson look like they can be difference makers down the line. My biggest surprise is Vallot at center. Prudhomme was a damn good center and there has been no discernible drop off in play.
I'm a big fan of Jones. He's looked damn good and has the frame to really grow into a beast on defense. He's physical and has a good motor. He needs to see the field more somehow even when Manac gets back.
Maybe I'm just sleep deprived, which studies show that sleep deprivation can have similar effects to the brain as alcohol, but I actually understood every thing that Boomer said in that post.
