For the second week in a row, we have some Wednesday night college football action to look forward to. The “Fun Belt” gets its opportunity in the midweek spotlight as the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns take on the Marshall Thundering Herd. Check out our top Louisiana-Marshall picks for their Week 7 matchup.
The only previous meeting between these schools was in last year's New Orleans Bowl. The Ragin' Cajuns scored on three consecutive drives in the fourth quarter to win by 15 a s 4-point favorites.
Although expectations were high in Lafayette coming into the 2022 season, Louisiana (3-2 ATS, 2-3 O/U) enters this game on a three-game losing skid. After losing back-to-back road games as betting favorites, the Ragin' Cajuns fell at home to South Alabama two weeks ago. The defending conference champs are still searching for their first road win of the season.
Meanwhile, Marshall (2-3 ATS, 1-4 O/U) enjoyed a moment in the national spotlight earlier this season thanks to a shocking upset win over Notre Dame. The Thundering Herd have come back down to Earth since then with losses to Bowling Green and Troy. Marshall was able to get back on track two weeks ago with a win over an FCS opponent.
