Louisiana vs SE Louisiana Game Preview
Why SE Louisiana Will Win
This is another loaded Lion team that should make a push for the FCS playoffs again.
The offense is dangerous – it led the FCS in scoring averaging 45 points per game – thanks to an ultra-efficient passing attack that keeps the chains moving.

It might be the best FBS vs FCS matchup of the day.
