Southern Miss at South Alabama

Southern Miss is on a 4-9 spread run, as well as six straight non-covers in non-conference action. Southern Miss breaks in a new coach in Will Hall and a new playbook making this a difficult situational spot opening on the road. South Alabama has a new coach, too, in Kane Wommack and he inherits a lot of experience and talent. Their top tacklers return on defense, while the offense has one of the best corps of receivers in the Sun Belt for new QB Jake Bentley. Bentley is a senior who has been at South Carolina and Utah. These teams met last September with South Alabama winning at Southern Miss, 32-21. Three South Alabama recevers torched the Southern Miss secondary for 82, 101, and 169 yards (3 TDs), while the ground attack had over 150 rushing yards. Play South Alabama.
