As was the case with most college football teams in 2020, Louisiana Tech and Georgia Southern have faced a lot of adversity this season. Despite all the twists and turns that came with the 2020 college football season, both programs end their years in familiar surroundings as they prepare to end their season in a bowl game.

Georgia Southern is making his third straight bowl trip and the fourth in seven years since becoming an FBS program in 2014, while Louisiana Tech bowling for the seventh consecutive year under coach Skip Holtz. Despite her recent experience with bowls and her status as a successful group of the Five Southern Programs, this will be their first meeting.

Louisiana Tech is 9-0 against teams from the Sun Belt, but the Bulldogs (5-4) are 5. 5-point underdogs against a Georgia Southern team that finished the regular season 7-5. There can be several reasons for this. For one, Louisiana Tech signed off three key offensive players last month. Also, Georgia Southern’s record could easily be better without four one-ball losses.

Louisiana Tech: Louisiana Tech finished 4-8, missing a bowl in Skip Holtz’s first season as a coach in 2013. The Bulldogs have not only reached one bowl game every season since, but also won the postseason game every year. This makes them the only non-Power Five team to have won a bowl for at least six consecutive years. The series already includes a New Orleans Bowl win when Louisiana Tech defeated Arkansas State 47-28 when playing the game in 2015. To keep the series alive, the Bulldogs will have to do a better job against the run than they would in a 52:10 loss to the TCU to end the regular season. The Horned Frogs ran 333 yards and six touchdowns in just 35 attempts that game.

Georgia Southern: The Eagles rank eighth nationwide with 262 yards per game. 5 with an option attack led by senior quarterback Shai Werts for the past four seasons. But Werts has missed Georgia Southern’s last two regular season games and may not be available for bowl game due to a shoulder injury. That could mean ex-quarterback Miller Mosley gives the go-ahead. The Wofford transfer was put into action following an injury to Justin Tomlin in the regular season final against Appalachian State, completing 5 of 14 passes for 122 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions when the Eagles were forced to throw the ball while they played out behind. He also ran 13 times for 49 yards in the 34-26 loss.

Game: New Orleans Bowl Date: Wednesday, Dec.. . 23 | Time: 3 p. m. ETLocation: Mercedes-Benz Superdome – New OrleansTV: ESPN | Live stream: fuboTV (test for free)

While Werts can’t play, Georgia Southern’s offense is solid enough to control the clock against a Louisiana Tech defense that allowed 4. 7 yards per carry for opponents this season. That means Louisiana Tech’s impressive streak may end with six straight wins, as well as the program’s perfect 9-0 record against Sun Belt teams. Selection: Georgia Southern (-5. 5) | Georgia Southern 27, Louisiana Tech 20
