Before you ready those angry tweets and emails, we freely admits it’s way too early to make a concrete call for the title game. But through four weeks, the Red Wolves already stand head and shoulders above the rest of the Sun Belt West division.
Arkansas State is 3-1 overall, and of the other four teams in the west, three have a single win, and 2-2 ULM is undergoing struggles of its own. The Warhawks have lost to FCS Southeastern Louisiana and C-USA’s Southern Miss by a combined four points.
There’s still time for many of these teams to turn it around, but with a two-game advantage heading into conference play, the West will be the Red Wolves’ to lose.
