The Saints had an opportunity to move into a first place tie in the NFC South with a win last night in Dallas, instead New Orleans got off to a slow start and lost to the Cowboys 38-17.

Coach Sean Payton says they struggled in all areas of the game…:

Freshman Brandon Harris made his case to be the starting quarterback as he threw for 178 yards and three touchdowns in LSU’s 63-7 win over New Mexico State.

ULM is 3-1 for the first time since 1993 after pulling out a 22-20 win over Troy on Saturday night.
