Charles Huff left Marshall to become head coach at Southern Miss and brought with him QB Braylon Braxton, the 2024 Sun Belt Newcomer of the Year. They have given new life to a program that has been floundering for years. The Eagles have won and covered two straight after falling to Mississippi State in their season opener, including 38-22 over Appalachian State last week. Braxton went 22-for-30 for 279 yards and two TDs with one interception. Louisiana Tech is 2-1 after beating New Mexico State 49-14, but the Bulldogs are 0-4 ATS in their past four games following a victory in which they scored more than 40 points. They totaled 369 yards rushing against the Aggies. Blake Baker and Trey Kukuk combined for just 12 of 20 for 239 yards and two TDs with an interception. Southern Miss has covered four of five against C-USA opponents. Louisiana Tech has lost 13 of its past 20 games outright and five of its seven September games. The Bulldogs have gone UNDER four of their past five dating to last season. Take Southern Miss on the moneyline and the UNDER.

Pro Picks
Southern Miss at Louisiana Tech
The Louisiana Tech Bulldogs are off to an impressive start at 5-1. They will take on another team off a solid start in the 4-2 Southern Mississippi Eagles. Tech went off for 69 points last game vs. the nation's worst team, UMass, so the total here appears to be bumped a bit by the oddsmakers. They have faced a lot of bad teams with poor defenses. They played Grambling and four other teams that have a combined record of 6-19 outside of their one tough game vs. Texas where they scored 14 points. The offensive numbers are very skewed by bad competition. Southern Mississippi gave up a combined 87 points to Alabama and Mississippi State and the defense is a lot better than it looks. Play on the UNDER.
