Southern miss 31- UL. 10. Our offence can't keep up with several coverage breakdowns and their qb makes us pay

[TuffGuy84]

I must admit, this team has been so bipolar that I have absolutely no clue what the hell to expect in the game. The cajuns might win by 30 or lose by 30. I've had a good read before, just this time I just don't know.

Spread opened up as USM -2 and now its at USM -4.

Southern Miss is 6-0 vs the spread against us in the last 6 match-ups.

[Cajunfanatico]

For whatever reason, Hud seems to coach his best in bowl games. He keeps defying the odds.

Yup. While my head tells me USM has the aerial arsenal to overcome our ground game defense, I agree that Hud seems to reach deepest when it's bowl game time and inspires his team to play beyond their capabilities.

[Cajunjeb]

Spread opened up as USM -2 and now its at USM -4.

Southern Miss is 6-0 vs the spread against us in the last 6 match-ups.

No offense, but the players in this Saturday's game were in middle/high school in 2008, which was the last time the two teams played. How would USM's 6-0 v/s spread historically have anything to do with setting a line for this game?

[billbeck451]

the last time that we played Southern Miss most people were in the middle of evacuating ahead of a hurricane. Bad blood since USM's coach wouldn't move the start time to a morning start like most other games in the area. That game was also the year that Fenroy got cheap shotted on a kickoff return, and the USM players played dirty as ____ which was a reflection on Fedora's style of play when he was the coach there.

[MountainDew]

As mentioned before, Hud's guys have come to play in the bowl games. I expect the same this year.

24-14 Cajuns win.

I have been pretty close and fairly accurate with my score predictions this year thus far. However, I have no clue what to expect for the bowl. Which team for either school will show up is the question. I think we know what we have here. A limited team offensively with a good defense. Like someone said earlier, we need to turn them over and stop the run and pray we can get Eli in space. I'll just sit back and watch.
