How To Watch
What to Know
Louisiana has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers are set to clash at 3:00 p.m. ET on Thursday at Pensacola Bay Center in a Sun Belt postseason contest. Louisiana has been getting the ball to fall more lately as they’ve increased their point totals each of their last three games.
Last Friday, the Ragin Cajuns strolled past the Golden Eagles with points to spare, taking the game 77-61.
Meanwhile, Coastal Carolina finally caught a break after four consecutive losses. They secured a 75-71 W over the Warhawks on Tuesday. Winning is a bit easier when your three-point shooting is a whole 37.5% better than the opposition, as Coastal Carolina’s was.
Coastal Carolina can attribute much of their success to Jacob Meyer, who scored 32 points along with six rebounds and five assists. It was the first time this season that Meyer scored 20 or more points.
The Ragin Cajuns’ victory bumped their record up to 18-13. As for the Chanticleers, their victory bumped their record up to 9-21.
Louisiana is hoping to beat the odds on Thursday, as the experts think they’re headed for a loss. This contest will be their fifth straight as the favorites (so far over this stretch they are 1-2 against the spread).
Louisiana was able to grind out a solid victory over Coastal Carolina in their previous matchup back in January, winning 85-77. The rematch might be a little tougher for Louisiana since the squad won’t have the home-court advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.

DeRidder man found dead in Sabine River
NEWTON COUNTY, Texas. (KPLC) – A DeRidder man reported missing was found dead in the Sabine River Sunday morning, according to the Newton County Sheriff’s Office.
Newton County Sheriff Colton Havard said Jordan Jamal Allen was located around 7:50 a.m. on July 12 with help from Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens, the Beauregard Parish Sheriff’s Office, and 409 Search and Rescue.
Authorities say the body was recovered not far from where Allen went under Friday night near the U.S. 190 bridge east of Bon Wier at the Texas-Louisiana state line.
The sheriff said that Allen and a woman were said to be wading across the river Friday when the current began pulling the woman.
The sheriff said Allen tried to help her, but went under around 8:45 p.m. and wasn’t seen again. He said the woman made it back to land safely.
We will have more in this story as it develops.
