ULM was one of the worst teams in the Sun Belt – and maybe the Group of Five – a season ago. But the Warhawks have instantly shown improvement in their first season under head coach Bryant Vincent.
They started the year with a 30-14 victory over Jackson State and then beat UAB 32-6. But now they have to up their level of play significantly if they’re going to win again this week.
ULM is going on the road to play No. 1-ranked Texas.

ULM vs. Texas Prediction
I predict Texas will win and cover the spread at +44.5. I also project the game will go Over 52.5 total points.
The Longhorns have beaten two G5 teams, Colorado State and UTSA, by a collective margin of 108-7. And I believe those two teams are better than ULM. I don’t think Texas will have much issue earning another decisive victory, no matter if its Quinn Ewers or Arch Manning at quarterback.
The Longhorns’ defense and offense have both been great thus far. I think Texas will score enough points for this game to go Over 52.5 points by itself, but I also think ULM will manage to score a couple touchdowns in garbage time.
