The Southern Miss Golden Eagles will be playing at home against the Tulane Green Wave at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Carlisle-Faulkner Field at M.M. Roberts Stadium. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.
Last Saturday, Southern Miss was pulverized by Florida State 66-13. Southern Miss was in a tough position after the first half, with the score sitting at 31-3.
Southern Miss' loss came about despite a quality game from RB Rodrigues Clark, who rushed for 86 yards and punched in a rushing TD.
Meanwhile, things could have been worse for Tulane, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 37-20 loss to Ole Miss on Saturday.
Southern Miss will need to dig deep on Saturday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. They finished last season with a stellar 9-3 record against the spread, so they might be worth a quick bet.
Southern Miss skirted past Tulane in their previous matchup last September 27-24. Will Southern Miss repeat their success, or do Tulane have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
