The Ragin' Cajuns survived a late Bobcats comeback to secure a thrilling 42-39 victory at Our Lady of Lourdes Stadium. Lunch Winfield starred for Louisiana with three passing touchdowns—two to Shelton Sampson Jr.—and added two rushing scores as the Ragin' Cajuns built a commanding 42-20 lead early in the fourth quarter. Texas State mounted a furious rally with three fourth-quarter touchdowns, including two Brad Jackson passing scores in the final nine minutes, but came up just short in the high-scoring Sun Belt showdown.
