What to Know
The Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks are staying on the road Saturday to face off against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs at 7 p.m. ET Sept. 10 at Joe Aillet Stadium. The Lumberjacks should still be riding high after a victory, while Louisiana Tech will be looking to get back in the win column.
Even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Stephen F. Austin beat the Alcorn State Braves 31-27 last week. The win came about thanks to a strong surge after the half to overcome a 24-10 deficit.
Meanwhile, the oddsmakers predicted a rough contest for the Bulldogs last Thursday, and boy were they were right. Their bruising 52-24 defeat to the Missouri Tigers might stick with them for a while. Louisiana Tech was down 38-10 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. Louisiana Tech's loss came about despite a quality game from WR Cyrus Allen, who caught five passes for two TDs and 121 yards. Parker McNeil's 64-yard touchdown toss to Allen in the fourth quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the night.
Louisiana Tech's loss took them down to 0-1 while Stephen F. Austin's victory pulled them up to 1-1. We'll see if Louisiana Tech can steal Stephen F. Austin's luck or if the Lumberjacks records another win instead.
