Arkansas State has lost back-to-back games and they took a 52-20 loss as a 20-point underdog to Coastal Carolina last week. UL Lafayette on the other hand has won five straight games since opening the season with a loss. Last week, the Ragin' Cajuns put a 41-13 beating on App State as a 4-point underdog. Is there a risk of a letdown spot? Unlikely IMO as this is a Thursday night primetime game.

The Red Wolves are allowing 47 points and 584 total yards of offense per game, 270 of that on the ground. UL Lafayette is averaging a solid 179.3 rushing yards per game, but they can also attack through the air.

Arkansas State is coming off their bye, but note that the Red Wolves are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games following a bye week. Ragin' Cajuns are 14-5-1 ATS in their last 20 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. Ragin' Cajuns are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Thursday games.

8* play on UL Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns.
