LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) — Quarterback Lunch Winfield accounted for five touchdowns and 241 total yards and Louisiana-Lafayette made its explosive second quarter hold up in a 42-39 win over Texas State on Saturday night.

Texas State’s Brad Jackson threw for 360 yards and three touchdowns and Beau Sparks had 186 yards on 10 catches and a touchdown.
The Ragin’ Cajuns (4-6, 3-3 Sun Belt Conference) established a 35-17 lead with the help of a four-touchdown second quarter. Winfield threw a 27-yard scoring pass to Caden Jensen, Bill Davis ran it in from the 12, Winfield threw a 12-yard touchdown pass to Shelton Sampson Jr. and Winfield ran it in from the 1.
Trailing 42-20 early in the fourth, the Bobcats (3-6, 0-5) scored three touchdowns starting with Spark’s 49-yard touchdown run, Jackson threw a 38-yard touchdown to Sparks and Jackson threw a 21-yard touchdown to Chris Dawn Jr. with 3:12 left.
