Key Storylines
Can Louisiana Tech’s offense find its spark?
It’s a fair question. Louisiana Tech has been held to seven points or fewer three times already in 2025—the first season that’s happened since 1994.
With quarterbacks Evan Bullock and Trey Kukuk both dealing with injuries, Tony Franklin faces the dual challenge of protecting his signal-callers if they’re able to play while also crafting a game plan capable of jump-starting the offense.
Tech’s defense has been steady for much of the year, but it continues to operate with an extremely thin margin for error. If the Bulldogs hope to turn things around, they’ll need more support from the offensive side of the ball.
Can the Bulldogs create their own energy?
Louisiana Tech has dropped four of its last five games, and the timing isn’t ideal. With quarter break underway, only a small portion of the student body is in town. Thanksgiving break begins Friday for local schools, meaning many families will also be traveling.
All signs point to a lighter crowd at Joe Aillet Stadium on Saturday.
With a bowl berth still within reach, the question becomes whether Sonny Cumbie can rally his injury-plagued team and generate enough energy from within to deliver a much-needed win on Saturday afternoon.
