Centenary LA looks to extend win streak over Lyon in SCAC game

Centenary LA has won every meeting with Lyon since the series began in 2024, including a 23-20 decision last October, and Versus projects a fourth straight result in the Gents' favor this time, 29-20. The game counts in the SCAC standings for both sides, who enter at 2-4 and 2-5 respectively with little separating them in the division's lower tier.

Lyon's last five games have been rough, with the Scots being outscored on average and managing only one win in that stretch. Their offense and defense both sit near the bottom of Division III, each ranked 198th. Centenary LA isn't far off in the ranks either, 196th on offense and 179th on defense, but the Gents have found more consistency lately, scoring at least 20 points in each of their last three games.

One wrinkle worth noting: Centenary LA has actually scored more points per game on the road than at home this season, while Lyon has shown the same pattern, averaging more points away from home than at home. That makes Centenary LA's status as the host less of a clear advantage than the final projection suggests, even with Versus still giving the Gents a 69 percent chance to win and keep their series control intact.
