Live scores, highlights and updates from the Southern Miss vs. South Alabama football game
The South Alabama Jaguars and the Southern Miss Golden Eagles are opening their 2020 seasons against one another at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday at Carlisle-Faulkner Field at M.M. Roberts Stadium. Returning after a rocky 2-10 year, South Alabama is aiming to prove that the past does not define them. While Southern Miss was not exactly top dog last season, they did wrap up the year with a winning record of 7-6.
A couple last-season offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Jaguars ranked 12th worst in the nation with respect to passing yards per game last year, where the team accrued only 158.8 on average (bottom 92%). The Golden Eagles experienced some struggles of their own as they were 10th worst when it came to rushing yards per game last year, with the squad coming up with only 117.5 on average. Looks like yards on the ground might be a bit hard to come by this week.
