The first game of the season was a real nightmare for the Red Raiders, as a bitter cocktail of misfortune and mistakes led to a resounding loss against a good Ole Miss team. The team lead by head coach Kliff Kingsbury has the possibility to immediately rise again on Saturday, facing Lamar, an FCS team based in Beaumont, TX.
The Cardinals began their season on a high note: indeed, in Week 1 they won against Kentucky Christian Knights (NAIA) with the final score of 70-7. Yet, if we travel back to 2017, we discover their record was a babbling 2-9, and their only contact with FBS ended in a 45-point loss against North Texas in Denton.
