Sun Belt Football Week 5 Preview
MATCHUPS
Arkansas State at Western Kentucky
North Texas at Tulsa
Florida Atlantic at Louisiana-Lafayette
Duke at Florida International
Memphis at Middle Tennessee
UAB at Troy
The headliner in this list of games is Florida Atlantic at
Louisiana-Lafayette. FAU played Auburn tough last week, so the Owls shouldn’t
roll over for ULL. However, the Cajuns are flying high after upsetting Florida
International on the road. If the Sun Belt’s pattern of wackiness continues,
Florida Atlantic will be in good shape. This is a crucial time for ULL to “hold
serve” at home and affirm its status as a league title contender.
Florida International should get healthy against Duke, while
North Texas has a chance against Tulsa because the Golden Hurricane’s situation
at quarterback is unsettled thanks to a week-three injury to starter G.J.
Kinne. Arkansas State will be heavily favored at Western Kentucky, and the same
holds true for Middle Tennessee against Memphis. Troy should be able to beat
back UAB on its home field.
