After back-to-back seasons as the Sun Belt’s runner-up, Louisiana finally earned a conference title — though, they had to share it with Coastal Carolina after the championship game was called off due to COVID-19 protocols.
The Ragin’ Cajuns posted their second double-digit win season of the past 50 years in 2020, going 10-1 overall with a marquee victory over Iowa State in the season opener. However, they’re still on the hunt for their first outright league trophy since 1970. The team remains a contender to win it in 2021 and are the favorites to clinch the West Division, receiving nine of the 10 first-place votes in this year’s Sun Belt Coaches Poll.
Louisiana is 7-0 all-time against Texas State, including a 44-34 win over the maroon and gold inside Bobcat Stadium on Oct. 31. It was the closest win margin of the series.
