Our usual front seven will mostly be sitting at home watching the game.
Key to victory for us is to score early and often. If Napier wants to win the conference this year; he cannot afford to protect Levi, especially with Elijah Mitchell and Max Mitchell both out. If Levi rushes for 50+ yards and has a decent passing game, we should score 42+, as it will open running lanes for Ragas, Smith and whatever other backs play. If we do business as usual, with Levi not running at all, we will be lucky to score 21.
The defense is gutted by covid; the young puppies are going to have to step up and play disciplined gap control defense. Even so; they will make enough mistakes to make GaSo very dangerous offensively.
Open up the offense; play just well enough defensively and Cajuns win 45-35.
Play business as usual offensively; make a few mistakes defensively and Cajuns lose 42-24.
