Southern coach Dawson Odums aware of the challenge of playing at Louisiana Tech
Southern coach Dawson Odums is well aware of the differences in his program and that of FBS Louisiana Tech heading into this week’s season opener in Ruston.
While Southern is one of the top team in the Southwestern Athletic Conference, Odums acknowledged in his weekly luncheon press conference that there is a difference between the two leagues.
“(Louisiana Tech is) a level up from us, and just to have the opportunity to play in that kind of environment should create some excitement and should get you ready to play,” Odums said. “I think La. Tech is a worthy opponent. They’re a good program, and you have to come in with the right mindset. I think when you do that, you give yourself a chance.”

Pretty much just coach speak. I do believe that Southern is going to give us all they have. We should be better at almost every position PLUS the depth, but there is no accounting for emotion - it can propel you or kill you. We need to come out like they are Alabama!

Apparently I'm missing an implication. Sounds liked canned coach speak.
