Golden Eagles must move forward to LSU

There were many questions on Saturday when Southern Miss lost 55-32 to Texas-San Antonio.

There were less answers during the week leading up to USM’s LSU visit this subsequent Saturday.

“All of our goals are still ahead of us,” said senior quarterback Nick Mullens who threw for 378 yards against the Roadrunners. “We’re good, real focused and on a mission.We have a great opportunity to go out and play against LSU this weekend. After that, it’s all a dive into conference play. Five game playoff — you win and you’re in.”

Southern Miss is used to slow starts, putting up three points in the first quarters against Rice and Texas-El Paso, only to finish with 44 and 34, respectively.
