The last two undefeated teams in the G5 were in the Sun Belt Conference. They both went down yesterday. As each team has now played at least six games, we can safely that the league has delivered the entertainment value that we anticipated.
Louisiana’s defense came through in an important road win at Marshall that included a 37-minute lightning delay. South Alabama beat a divisional opponent as Carter Bradley set a school record. Southern Miss battled to edge out Arkansas State, and Troy beat Texas State by just a field goal. Meanwhile, Georgia Southern took out a ranked James Madison team, and Old Dominion shocked the league by spoiling Coastal Carolina’s homecoming.
