UL opened its 2006 football season with a pair of games against nationally-prominent programs, and was popped twice at LSU and Texas A&M by a combined 96-10 score.

Florida Atlantic began its season with four straight road games at Clemson, Kansas State, Oklahoma State and South Carolina, and went 0-4 while being outscored 192-20. Since then neither team has lost. The Cajuns (3-2) have won three in a row and take that streak into Wednesday’s Sun Belt Conference opener at Florida Atlantic (2-4). The host Owls already hold a league win, having beaten UL Monroe on the road two weeks ago.

Louisiana-Lafayette opened eyes around the Sun Belt Conference on Oct. 7 with a victory over Houston, a team that fell to the University of Miami by a point. That was a Joe Duffy’s Godspicks winner. Last year, the Owls prevailed 28-10 at Lafayette, one of the team’s two victories all season. FAU trailed 10-7 in that game before it scored the game’s final 21 points.The loss denied the Ragin’ Cajuns a berth in the New Orleans Bowl. Lafayette tied Louisiana-Monroe and Arkansas State, both of which defeated FAU, with a 5-2 conference record, and Arkansas State won the tiebreaker for the bowl bid.

The Ragin’ Cajuns built off that loss. After a three-point loss to Arkansas State the following week, Lafayette finished with five consecutive victories.
