SportsCenter only showed 30 seconds of the epic Rock-Paper-Scissor showdown between the Cajuns and Warhawks. The entire battle, from start to finish, is pretty awesome. Watch it all here.
This season marks the 22nd since Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns joined the Sun Belt Conference. It was actually a merger between the Sun Belt and the American South Conferences, plus one addition (Arkansas-Little Rock.) Of the eleven members who were in the league for that first season in 1991-92, six of them (Jacksonville, UCF, Lamar, Louisiana Tech, Texas-Pan American and New Orleans) are gone.

Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns won their sixth straight game today, defeating Sun Belt foe North Texas by the score of 30-10. The Cajuns 6-1 record is the best start for a team in the history of the Sun Belt conference. The win also makes the Cajun bowl eligible after only 7 weeks. Blaine Gautier threw 4 touchdown passes on 14-20 for 238 yards. Tight End LaDarius Green reeled in 2 of those scores.

The two teams met in a three game series in Mobile in 1993. On...

We're halfway through the Sun Belt schedule and the only thing we've learned is that no one is going to run away with this thing.
In fact, one should not assume that the top of the league will remain there, or that the bottom can't move up.
Here's where we stand at the halfway point.

I wrote a blog a couple of weeks ago and looked at a fourteen game stretch that the Cajuns would have to get through before the last five weeks of the season.
