10 college football teams who could take a step back in 2022
Louisiana (13-1)
The Ragin’ Cajuns are still the presumptive favorites in the Sun Belt West but look primed to not be as dominant as they were in 2021 after ending the season on a 13-game win streak. Michael Desormeaux takes over as head coach with Billy Napier at Florida and QB Levi Lewis needs to be replaced, too. Chandler Fields is the presumptive starter and the team’s top three receivers from 2021 return. But the defense has to replace its top three tacklers and leading sacker Chauncey Manac.
A Nov. 19 game vs. Florida State is a fascinating late-season non-conference matchup. Louisiana's only loss of 2021 came against Texas. If Louisiana is better than we think they are in 2022, then a win over Florida State isn't going to be much of a surprise.
