Week 2 of the college football season has concluded, with Sun Belt teams facing elite programs. Louisiana Tech and LSU had a high-scoring game, with Tech trailing 10-7 at halftime but fighting back to score 100 yards on a pick-six. However, LSU's defense controlled the game, allowing only 45 points. Louisiana Tech's offensive improvement with Lunch Winfield, who completed 14 of 22 passes for 212 yards and two touchdowns, along with 91 rushing yards, is a positive sign for the team.
Meanwhile, Louisiana showed resilience as an underdog, staying competitive against USC's powerful offense and defense. Old Dominion's loss to Virginia Tech demonstrated the need for improvement in protecting their quarterback, Quinn Henicle, and better pocket protection. Despite the loss, Old Dominion may still have the potential to become a strong Sun Belt team with more experience.
