UL Football Weather/Homecoming Events Schedule

It's looking like a great day, from a weather standpoint, when the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns play host to the New Mexico St. Aggies in non-conference action on Saturday at Cajun Field.

And what better day to have great weather, other than the 69th Annual Homecoming Game?

The weather experts are calling for mostly sunny skies, with no mention of rain.

Temperatures will be as comfortable as they have been in quite some time, holding steady in the 70's for most of the day, before peaking at 80 degrees right around kickoff, which is scheduled for 4 pm.

New Mexico St. is 2-4 on the season, while Louisiana will enter at 2-3.

You can hear all the play-by-play on ESPN 1420, espn1420.com, and the ESPN 1420 mobile app, beginning with the Tailgate Show at 2 pm.

In addition, the game can be heard on as Hot 107.9, 1079ishot.com, and the Hot 107.9 mobile app, beginning with the official pregame show at 3 pm.

The game can also be viewed on ESPN+.

Meanwhile, there's a lot going on, before and after the 69th Annual Homecoming Game.
