Week Six TT's Predictions & Quick Analysis

Langston @ Lamar - Lamar is going to be just fine in this game. Figure Langston is not as strong as Webber International and the Cards have continued their development, where this game will be a little more of what we expected against Webber earlier this year. It is Homecoming and after two bad losses, time to recover. LAMAR

Texas State-San Marcos @ Southeastern Louisiana - Beatty has had a week to rest up since the Lions nearly knocked off FBS UL-Monroe. The Bobcats have to make the trek out to Hammond and this is probably a game which could provide an early indicator of who will compete for the SLC title with SFA. Bobcats win this, they could be on a roll and have just that FBS loss en route to a battle of top 10s when they play SFA. SOUTHEASTERN will ruin that possibility.

Sam Houston State @ Nicholls - Wish I could make this, but got a press box to run in the NOLA. Wife has never been to Thibodaux, but has visited the good folks in Hammond including GeauxLions94 on two trips. Will go with SAM HOUSTON STATE as Stubbs is taking time to get the program up and rolling while SHSU is made some huge leaps.

Northwestern State @ Central Arkansas - The Demons are not going to have the easiest of times winning on the road in the SLC on 'Any Given Saturday' (cheap plug) and this coming Saturday won't be any easier, regardless of what little people think of UCA this year. Can Demons get first Div I win since '08? No. CENTRAL ARKANSAS

Stephen F. Austin @ McNeese State - SFA may be the king, but we all know McNeese won't be down for long. The Pokes are going to be at home, but the Jeremy Moses Show must roll on this year from town to town. Don't worry Pokes, Moses graduates this year. STEPHEN F. AUSTIN
