New Mexico State Aggies at Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin’ Cajuns Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
The two teams come in on differing notes. For New Mexico State, the Aggies have gotten by Texas State 45-35 in their most recent outing two weeks ago. The Aggies come in on a bye and will face a Louisiana-Lafayette team that was steamrolled in Oxford, Mississippi last week. The Cajuns would fall by 28 to the Ole Miss Rebels despite being given a lofty cushion of over three scores in against the spread markets. The Ragin’ Cajuns are known for a lack of defense and this has cost them several victories this season already. However, the Cajuns have shown improvement in their previous five games holding opposing teams to 16 or less points in three of those five contests.

New Mexico State Aggies at Louisiana-Lafayette Ragin Cajuns Prediction
The sad truth is that in this game one team has to be favored. That team is the team that is the invader and not the host. Louisiana-Lafayette has surprised on several occasions this year when they were a significant pooch so there is no reason to believe they cannot do the same here with home field advantage. New Mexico State’s most noteworthy win? Likely New Mexico but then again that was in a rivalry game where anything can happen. There are too many holes in this team for them to be a road favorite like this and thus ULL garners a look on the Money Line. However, for those looking to be conservative take the points.
Free Pick:
Take Louisiana-Lafayette +4
