Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns vs. Troy Trojans Prediction
I’m on Troy here. I just don’t trust the Cajuns to be able to score enough to keep themselves within this number. Troy’s the better team in my opinion on both sides of the football, and I think they run away with this one at home as they’re still a dark horse in the Sun Belt. Give me Troy laying the wood here.
