Why Nicholls Will Win

142-3. That’s what Nicholls has done to its first two opponents combined.

At least Lincoln out of Missouri came up with a field goal – Lamar couldn’t even do that in the 55-0 loss. The Colonel offense has been a machine, with former Missouri QB Lindsey Scott throwing for 232 yards and three scores and running for a team-high 108 yards and three touchdowns last week.

The Nicholls defense held Lamar to just 91 yards of total offense and put this was 34-0 at halftime. Northwestern State has enough defensive talent to make this more of a fight than Lincoln and Lamar did, but Nicholls has had two straight nice scrimmages to tune everything up.

Why Northwestern State Will Win

Yes, it might have been a good first two games for the Colonels, but they haven’t seen anything like this passing attack. The Demons should have just enough of an offense to make this a little bit interesting.

The parts from the team that went 3-9 in 2019 and had one of the best passing games in the FCS aren’t around, but the system should still work and should have the downfield ability to keep up.

This is a better Nicholls team than the 2019 version, but Northwestern State was able to ball in a 45-35 loss two years ago.

What’s Going To Happen

Nicholls is a machine, but it’s taking a step up in competition. Northwestern State will score more than three points, but the defense isn’t going to hold down the machine that’s putting up massive numbers at will.

Lamar (0-0) vs Nicholls (1-0) Game Preview

Why Lamar Will Win

There’s a lot to potentially like about the Lamar offense if the passing game can get going. That wasn’t always a given in a rough 2019 season, but it’s got veteran parts who should be able to open things up a little bit more. At the very least, the ground game should be okay,

In this, though, the key for the Cardinals will be getting into the backfield.

For all of the problems and issues a few years ago, the defense was great at generating pressure and tackles for loss.

Why Nicholls Will Win

It’s not fair or right to take too much away from a win over Lincoln, but Nicholls got in a nice live scrimmage in the 87-3 win last weekend. QB Lindsay Scott – the former Missouri Tiger and then JUCO transfer – took target practice and the defense allowed just 20 passing yards in the blowout.

The offensive line will be among the best in the SoCon as the year goes on, but it’ll be that defense that has to take over after getting time to reload. The front seven only returned one starter, but there was a good rotation. Now …

What’s Going To Happen

Nicholls gets to play someone a whole lot better, but it’ll still be almost as strong. It won’t be 87-3 nasty, but Scott should be able to fire at will with the midrange passing game keeping the chains moving in a solid overall performance.
