Emani Bailey rushed for two TDs in the fourth quarter to help new Ragin’ Cajuns head coach Michael Desormeaux win his first game in charge. He took over after the ULL won the Sun Belt Championship under recently hired Florida coach Billy Napier. Rasheen Ali rushed for 160 yards and three touchdowns for Marshall. His 9-yard touchdown put Marshall in front 21-16 late in the third quarter.
