"RUSTON – The race for the Western Division crown is heating up in the final stretch of the regular season and Saturday’s showdown between Conference USA divisional rivals Louisiana Tech (7-1, 4-0) and North Texas (4-5, 3-2) will play a big role.
With a win over the Mean Green, Tech could further supplant its leading position in the West as it would earn another tiebreaker against a squad that’s still in the running for the top spot. A victory for North Texas would hand the Bulldogs their first conference loss and make the scene much tighter for the division race.
UNT will enter Joe Aillet Stadium will a great sense of urgency as it needs wins in two of its final three regular season games to reach bowl eligibility, something Louisiana Tech achieved three weeks ago with its 45-30 win over Southern Miss." - Cory Diaz, Monroe TNS

After the bye week, I'm ready to see the Bulldogs take the field again. Can Amik Robertson and the Tech Defense slow down Mason Fine and company enough to come out on top? I think so, but we'll find out in a few short hours.
