Louisville should be excited to play in this game as it is their first bowl trip S/’06 Orange Bowl. These two were former Ex-CUSA rivals and Southern Miss holds an 18-9-1 edge in the series. UL HC Strong will coach his 2nd bowl as he was the interim coach of Florida for their 27-10 loss to Miami (FL) in the ‘04 Peach Bowl while Southern Miss HC Fedora is 1-1 in bowls but has faced 2 Sun Belt foes and now jumps up to a BCS foe. Strong (DC) and Fedora (OC) did coach together at FL from ‘03-’04. Offensively, I have to give the edge to Southern Miss as they have avg 47 ppg the L/5 contests but the Cards do feature All-American RB Powell who ran for 1,330 yds (6.3) despite missing a couple of games to due to injury. He should be healthier here and UL has the defensive edge thanks in large part to Strong as they field one of the most improved D’s in the country this year including my #31 pass eff D. UL has won the L/4 vs SM with the most recent meeting being a 25-23 contest LY and makes it a 5th straight here in what should be an entertaining game. Read more… |
