The Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns and the Texas State Bobcats meet in college basketball action from the Pensacola Bay Center on Sunday as part of the Sun Belt Conference tournament. Let’s dive into the injuries, matchup history and make a prediction for this game.
Injuries
Neither side has anyone listed on the injury report for this game, so barring any last-minute announcements, both sides will come into this game at full strength.
Matchup History
Louisiana’s 82-63 win over Texas State back on February 2nd, 2023, made it three straight wins for the Ragin’ Cajuns in this head-to-head matchup.
Pick
I’m leaning towards Lafayette here. Sure, the Bobcats have managed to swing some wins in the conference tournament but at some point the clock has to strike 12 on Cinderella and I just don’t trust the Bobcats to get it done against a Louisiana team that’s used a top-30 offense to blow past teams left and right this season. I’ll lay it and play it with the Cajuns here.
