Now, on to Louisiana. The Ragin’ Cajuns are all sorts of fun. They average 78 PPG and are in the top-25 in field goal percentage and three-point percentage, so there is no shortage of offense here.
Yes, there always seems to be a massive upset in the first round, and I’m sure it will come this year.
