From Locked On Sun Belt - Daily Podcast On Sun Belt Conference Football & Basketball Locked On Podcast Network, Dave Schultz

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns rally behind quarterback Lunch Winfield and head coach Mike Desormeaux, aiming to reclaim Sun Belt dominance in 2026. After overcoming a season filled with injuries and lineup changes, Desormeaux credits his squad’s grit for their late-season surge and bowl eligibility. Can the Cajuns build on that momentum with a healthy roster and new playmakers emerging? Host David Schultz spotlights Winfield’s leadership, George Jackson’s physical transformation on the offensive line, and a dynamic running back group ready to step up. Key discussions include the importance of offensive stability, improvements on defense with experienced linebackers like Jake St. Andre, and upcoming tests, including a marquee matchup at USC. Will Winfield’s rise and Desourmeaux's adjustments return Louisiana to the top of the Sun Belt?
