UL wins 42-33
ESPN's David Pollack and Kevin Negandhi made predictions for Coastal Carolina vs. Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns football in the Sun Belt Championship.
I don't know why, but I feel the Cajuns are going to leave no doubt in this one, pulling away in the 4th.
37-17
49 hours, 10 minutes.
INSIDE THE GAME
WHAT’S AT STAKE?
The winner wins the Sun Belt championship and potentially could earn a New Year’s Day Bowl if Tulsa upsets Cincinnati. It would mark the first back-to-back double-digit win seasons in school history for the Cajuns, and UL’s third win over a ranked opponent.
