The South Alabama Jaguars and the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs will meet again to kick off their respective 2018 college football campaigns when LT and USA square off at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Alabama on Saturday, September 1st at 7:00 PM ET. The two teams met last year in Ruston, Louisiana when the Dogs curated hosting duties where they showed little hospitality when they smashed the Jags by a score of 34-16. In doing so, the Bulldogs covered an 11.5-point line comfortably. This is the second meeting in history between the two teams.

<h2>
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs at South Alabama Jaguars Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>Louisiana Tech Bulldogs </b>
</p>
<p>
At one point last season, the Bulldogs were looking at the possibility of not even qualifying for a bowl game. Tech was staring at a 4-6 record as it approached the back-end of its schedule but managed to mangle its final two opponents (UTEP and UTSA) to earn a bid to the Frisco Bowl where they would lay waste to an SMU football team playing without their then Head Coach Chad Morris who has since moved onto Arkansas. The Bulldogs are spearheaded by one of the more colorful coaching minds in college football in Skip Holtz.

<b>South Alabama Jaguars</b>
</p>
<p>
The Jaguars come in off a 4-8 campaign in 2017 that saw it square off with the likes of Ole Miss on the road followed up by hosting a then #11 Oklahoma State in the following week to kick off its season. The Jags went 0-2 down this stretch but managed to compile a 3-5 record within Sun Belt Conference play. Though this unit is regarded as one of the lower-level ensembles in college football, it is worth noting that this team orchestrated an upset of Mississippi State in Starkville, two years ago.

<h3>
Reasons To Back South Alabama<br />
</h3>
<p>
The Jaguars have the privilege of hosting this one, and they are 4-5 SU in home openers which means this team plays at a higher level in Mobile. When you combine this with the fact that no one is giving this team a chance in this game as 95% of the public money is in on LA Tech, the Jaguars are likely taking back more points than required here to offer some form of appeal to any prospective taker.

<h3>
Reasons To Avoid Louisiana Tech<br />
</h3>
<p>
The Bulldogs are not known for their defensive operations. In fact, their lack of a defense and rely solely on their offense to win games has been their downfall over the course of several crucial matches spanning the last few seasons. Last year, the Bulldogs seemed to be headed in the right direction, but they still allowed an average of 386 yards of total defense which suggests that there will be plenty of opportunities for USA to stay in the game.
