About 4 minutes left in early game on ESPN.

One possession game so likely why kickoff for Hens was bumped back. May have to start on another network first.

First drive recap:

L-Missed 39 yd fg (included a 40-yard completion)

Hens-Three and out (no designed runs, one dropped pass that would have been a good catch)

TV: Cajuns have the advantage on the defensive edge.

Duplesis really close on that deep pass.
Defense needs to settle in.

Louisiana is a rush first team using there 6th string tackles walk ons from the scout team. They arnt very good. This is very winnable if our offense shows up. With that being said Our D is what it is….

Offense needs a couple first downs at a minimum. Louisiana playing its ball control game so far and D is likely gassed.
