00:00It is week number 10 of this 2024 college football season.
00:09Again.
00:09We have pointed this out many times 55 consecutive days of
00:13an NFL or college football game means Tuesday football midweek
00:18match and returns exactly one week from tonight, but it's
00:22been see USA Tuesdays.
00:25Now we welcome in the fun belt though, Texas State and
00:29Louisiana tonight, the Bobcats and GJ Kitty three and a half
00:33point home favorite 58 and a half is the total Joe probably
00:37the best of our three games tonight.
00:39Sam Houston State though.
00:40The Bearcats have been really good this year.
00:42Their second in FBS FIU and New Mexico State FIU nine and a
00:49half point favorite.
00:50I think that says a lot more about NMSU at this moment than
00:53it does about the Panthers.
00:55Of course, they play at Pitbull Stadium 43 and a half is that
00:59total of our tripleheader on this Tuesday with the Sun Belt
01:03getting in the mix.
01:04What do you like?
01:06I like the Louisiana raging Cajuns here at Texas State.
01:11I mean, they're only lost in a season Ben came against Tulane.
01:14I believe that was 41 to 33.
01:16They even out gained a pretty darn good offensive Tulane team
01:21by by nearly 60 yards here.
01:24I think they have a win over Wake Forest their three and
01:28already in League play and call me crazy.
01:31I see them.
01:33I see them being a pretty tough matchup here for a underperforming
01:38Texas State team.
01:39Well, everyone thought was going to be one of the best in this
01:42division.
01:44I don't know.
01:44They want they gave one away against Sam Houston State.
01:48They lost at home to Arizona State.
01:50They let another one get by against Old Dominion.
01:53They got kind of got boat race last week.
01:55I think Louisiana is a top 20 offense in this country.
02:00I think they're going to be able to put up a ton of points.
02:03I like them getting points and I also like the older Ben.
02:06I can see this one being a fun one tonight over in the first
02:10four games this year for the Bobcats.
02:12That is Texas State a push in game 5 and under in to scrape
02:18Texas State as a favorite this year every single game and
02:23against FPS foes Joe.
02:25That's now six times.
02:27They are three and three against the number but also three and
02:31three straight up.
02:32So if they win, they're probably going to cover but they might
02:35not win this football game in Louisiana Joe has quite some
02:40pedigree.
02:41They're perfect in the Sun Belt after the loss to ODU Texas
02:44State two and one in conference play.
02:47The Sun Belt is the only of our nine FPS conferences that still
02:51uses divisions something to note and when you look at the rage
02:56and Cajuns for an area, it's a team that has an underdog just
03:00twice this season against Tulane did not cover only getting a
03:04point and a half perhaps that wasn't the correct spread and
03:07would look a little bit different because the Green Wave have
03:09been really solid this year still lost that game by a single
03:12score just eight points.
03:14They beat Wake Forest.
03:16They beat Wake Forest in Winston-Salem as a three-point underdog
03:2241 48 and to your point Joe about that total just two games,
03:26right small sample size for Louisiana as an underdog this
03:30year, but both of those games have gone over.
03:34Yeah, and listen, I and Texas Tech Texas State rather has
03:38actually been pretty decent defensively.
03:42They've kind of shown up here this year.
03:44I've been impressed with what I've seen for them, but I just
03:48think this offense of Louisiana coming into this game boy,
03:52they're going to be a tough train to stop here.
03:55They are rolling right now and getting points if both defenses
04:00are about equal and I get a better offense on the road catching
04:03more than a field goal.
04:04I'll take it all day long been right now both of these teams
04:08playing the Sun Belt West Division, Louisiana has the best
04:11record overall in the conference at 6 and 1 the raging Cajuns
04:16the only team that is perfect in conference play in the fun
04:20belt huge game tonight on a Tuesday.
04:23You wonder what some of these Tuesday and Wednesday games
04:25Joe is this a fishy line, right?
04:27We're highlighting all that Louisiana does despite being on
04:31the road.
04:32Are they the right side you wonder if the oddsmakers have
04:36the Bobcats booked as a favorite because it is fishy or just
04:40the power ratings that are flawed here because it doesn't get
04:44all that attention.
04:45Now, Louisiana Tech has played some competitive games the last
04:48couple of see USA Tuesdays and Wednesdays, Sam Houston State
04:52really not a bad team should be an exciting night on this
04:55Tuesday triple header of action.
04:58And again, a big one on San Marcos between Texas.
05:02I was going to say Sam.
05:03Yeah, give me give me the Sam Houston State who gets their
05:05quarterback back Hunter Watson is back.
05:09But this is not a passing team.
05:11They are running team in Louisiana Tech.
05:13One of the better run defenses in the country here under for
05:16me and I want to listen.
05:18We give you plays all week long.
05:20He's germinary.
05:21I am Ben Stevens.
05:22The early line returns tomorrow 8 a.m.
05:25Eastern Time on sports.
