T.M. Selection: UL Lafayette

I like the Louisiana Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns to win this game against the South Alabama Jaguars on Saturday. Fresh off a win last week against LA Tech, people are starting to jump on the USA hype train. Their only loss comes against the UCLA Bruins, a game where they probably should have won. However, they have yet to play a team like UL Lafayette. Even though the Ragin' Cajuns lost last week to Louisiana Monroe, this is a very talented group of guys that will do everything to win this game. As a team that loves to throw the ball, and throw it deep, this is the perfect matchup for them. USA has not been very strong against the pass this season as they only rank 84th in passing explosiveness against. According to PFF, the Ragin' Cajuns have been excellent in passing defense themselves. Their coverage grade ranks third best in the entire country. I expect the Jaguars to fall short here on Saturday against a ULL team that really needs a bounce back win.

T.M. Prediction: 36-33 Ragin' Cajuns.
