LSU is on a bye — and amid a coaching change — but Louisiana’s college football schedule has games slated for three consecutive days to turn the calendar from October to November.
Tulane and Louisiana Tech will kick off the state’s Week 10 slate with notable games Thursday and Friday: the Green Wave’s trip to UTSA where the Roadrunners can be pesky in the Alamodome, and then the Bulldogs’ Halloween date with Sam Houston for their 100th homecoming in program history.
The Sun Belt, Southland and SWAC carry the Saturday schedule with big conference games all around.
