The Cajun Crown is the name of the rivalry trophy between the Louisiana–Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns (formerly the Southwestern Louisiana Bulldogs) and the McNeese State Cowboys. The two teams have met 38 times on the football field, with McNeese State currently holding a 20–16–2 edge in the all time series. Originally an annual series, the game has been less frequently played since McNeese State moved from the NCAA's Division I-A to Division I-AA in 1982.
