Southern Miss began preparing for Louisiana-Monroe on Sunday.

As best it could, anyway.

With the third week of the college football season already upon us, the Warhawks (0-1) will welcome the Golden Eagles to Malone Stadium at 6 p.m. Saturday (ESPN3) with a decided advantage. Matt Viator’s team did not play last week as its road game at Florida State was canceled in anticipation of Hurricane Irma’s landfall. In addition, little could be gleaned from ULM’s season-opening 37-29 loss at Memphis, which was played during a deluge as remnants of Hurricane Harvey drenched the proceedings.
