Odds to Win the 2017 CUSA Football Championship – Conference USA Football Predictions & Expert Picks

2017 Conference USA “East Division” Prediction

1. Western Kentucky Hilltoppers(+170 odds to win CUSA) – The Hilltoppers will have to adjust to a new head coach this season as Jeff Brohm accepted the head coaching gig at Purdue and former Notre Dame offensive coordinator Mike Sanford was hired to be the new head coach. Sanford will have a lot of talent to work with in his first season as the team returns 10 starters from last year’s 11-3 CUSA Champion squad including senior quarterback Mike White. White was awesome last season in leading the Hilltoppers to 45.5 points per game to finish tops in the nation as he threw for 4363 yards and 37 touchdowns. The offense should be as good or close to it this season in our opinion with White only being better with another year of experience under his belt. The Hilltoppers defense wasn’t too shabby last season either as it finished a respectable 41st in the nation in points allowed as it gave up 24.6 points per game. The defense only has 5 returning starters but there is enough experience and talent for it to put forward another solid season to help give the high octane offense all the help it needs.2017 Projection 9-4, 6-2 CUSA

2017 Conference USA “West Division” Prediction

1. Louisiana Tech Bulldogs(+600 odds to win CUSA) – The Louisiana Tech Bulldogs are coming off of a solid 9-5 season in 2016 that saw them lose the Conference USA Championship Game to Western Kentucky 58-44 but bounce back to win the Armed Forces Bowl 48-45 over Navy. Head coach Skip Holtz is now 31-22 after 4 seasons on the job at La Tech and he has a talented roster returning in 2017 that has plans on getting back to the CUSA Title Game and winning it this time. The Bulldogs had an explosive offense last season that put up 44.3 points per game to finish 2nd nationally. However, this season they will have to adjust to a new quarterback as sophomore J’Mar Smith is the expected starter for the first game. Smith only threw for 412 yards and 2 touchdowns in limited mop up duty work last season so there could be some hiccups early on in the season offensively. Defense is another story as the defense was horrid last season giving up 33.6 points per game to wind up ranked 97th nationally. That won’t cut it this season with the offense expected to take a step back or two so it’s important that the unit improves and can carry some of the load at least early on in the season. La Tech should still win the CUSA West Division but they won’t be as good as last season. 2017 Projection 9-4, 6-2 CUSA
