well they get the old school 3 points for home field and the 7 points because we have Skip running the offense. That's the 10 right there

I think it's gonna be some ugly football tomorrow. Two underperforming offenses vs. two solid D's. If we can protect the ball and turn them over, we should win.

Last season, Tech was up 27-16 with 1:30 to go and Southern Miss rallied to force the game to overtime where Louisiana Tech quarterback J’Mar Smith as well as his counterpart Keon Howard threw interceptions to send the game to a second overtime. Howard hit Korey Robertson on the first play of double overtime and Tech’s offense stalled on the ensuing possession to seal the 34-27 loss.
2016
Louisiana Tech was riding a sevengame win streak and had already locked a league title game berth going into the Rivalry in Dixie showdown in Hattiesburg. The Bulldog offense was lighting itup, scoring 50 points per game in their win streak, but the Golden Eagles held them to just seven points in the second half and pulled away, 39-24.
In 2015, Tech had the inside lane to win the West, sitting 6-1 in league play and had won four straight where defense had given up just 15 points during that stretch leading up to hosting USM in Ruston. The Golden Eagles didn’t care, exploding for 58 points to overpower Tech 58-24 and knocking it out of the championship game.
Is "Achilles' heel" the same as "they own us"?
“Southern Miss has been the Achilles’ heel for us the last three years,” Holtz said earlier this week.“Being your neighbor, right next door geographically three hours away, those are games you want to win. Being that we’ve lost three in a row is something that energizes and encourages everybody going into what we’re walking into this week.”
Apparently it takes THREE LOSSES IN A ROW to energize and encourage everybody.
Skip needs a safe word for the type of domination USM whips him with. Giving up 11 with 1:30 left is the one that kills me.
Comcast Monroe CW does not have the game on the lineup for tomorrow.
I just wish we could have played USM when Dykes was here. We would have showed them then.
