Louisiana vs. Grambling Fearless Prediction, Game Preview

[SlickRick]

Looked at their roster yesterday. Looks like they have more players than we do, and that's a lot! Must have a huge walk-on program in place.

[CajunEXPRESS]

They're allowed 63 scholarships spread out to no more than 85 players.

We are going to grind them out with long drives and break their will as well as keeping our young defense off the field .... 2nd & 4th quarter is where we separate ourselves

The article talks about UL passing attack...disagree with that like you, I'm betting its the running game that grinds them down...passes will be short and few..Cajuns by 24, after a close first half and a less than stellar POA half time show...

[CajunNation]

I want Wright to get about 20 carries and Calais to get about 15 carries, and for Lewis and whoever the 3rd string QB is to get most of the reps at QB.

All of these guys need reps at their position.

Fan base not excited about the FCS opponents. Mix that with heat index in upper nineties, and recent failure. It is what it is.

The game in question was the season opener after our 3rd straight bowl win and 9-4 season. It is what it is.

Not with our defense. Turnovers and mental errors will tell the story.

I would agree. I think they will have some success offensively early. I think we will straighten things out as the game goes on and pull away a bit but too many new faces.

Grambling is coming off a 11-2 last season with a terrific head coach, Plus they have a lot of D-IA transfers this year. My prediction is 21-35 Louisiana.

I understand the band is working on a rousing salute to The Carpenters and their greatest hits melody...

LOL, I snorted my coffee on that one.
