Southern Mississippi tight end Julian Allen (11) celebrates teammates after scoring a touchdown against Kentucky Saturday night.
WITH MARSHALL’S bizarre first-week open week, I sat glued to the couch.
And sat and sat and sat. Watched a few games with MU implications, and here are some takeaways. (Or overreactions, you may say.)
Southern Mississippi is the favorite in Conference USA: It wasn’t just that the Golden Eagles defeated Kentucky 44-35, or that they beat a supposed “Power 5” team. After all, I’ve been picking on the Wildcats for years.
It was the way the Eagles overpowered the Wildcats in wiping out a 35-10 deficit.
