How to Watch Incarnate Word at Nicholls State: Stream College Football Live, TV Channel

Incarnate Word looks to get off to a great start after very successful season when kickoff against conference rival Saturday Nicholls State.

Nicholls State kicks off the season by hosting Incarnate Word for an early Southland Conference matchup. This matchup has been very even since 2014 with each team winning six matchups. Nicholls State has the longest streak, winning five in a row from 2016-2021. But Incarnate Word has bragging right coming into this matchup in 2025. These two last played in October 2024, and the Cardinals aboslutely dominated the Colonels in a 55-10 final. Nicholls State was coming into the game as the nation’s leader in turnover margin, and it gave up four turnovers on the game. Incarnate Word took great advantage, with two of those leading to touchdowns. Nicholls State was held to 10 points in the first half, but it got tougher in the second with the Colonels getting shutout. It was the Southland Conference opener for both teams, just like this will be on Saturday afternoon. Incarnate Word will once again be the betting favorite with a -14.5 line in its corner even on the road.

Incarnate Word is coming off a very promising 2024 campaign where the Cardinals finished with an 11-3 overall record and a perfect 7-0 conference record. The Cardinals lost two games back-to-back in their first three contests, but then they would go on to win nine regular season games in a row. That led to a birth in the FCS playoffs. Things started off promising for Incarnate Word with a first round buy, and then Cardinals beat No. 11 Villanova in the second round 13-6. Unfortunately for Incarnate Word, it fell short in the Quarterfinals dropping to No. 3 South Dakota State University 55-14. The Jackrabbits would eventually fall to North Dakota State by a touchdown in the semifinals in the next round. The Bison would go on to win the FCS Championship against Montana State.

Nicholls State is in nearly the opposite boat, trying to improve on a trying season in 2024 where the Colonels went 4-8 on the season. They went 2-5 in conference play and ended the season on a four-game losing streak. Being at home today should help the Colonels get off to a stronger start to this new season.
