Southern Miss Golden Eagles vs. Miami Hurricanes Prediction
I’m on Miami in this one. The Hurricanes have blown out a lot of the inferior teams they’ve gone up against so far this season, and Miami’s going to be the best team that Southern Miss has gone up against to date. Give the Golden Eagles credit for the start to the year they’ve had, but the talent disparity is evident here and I think Miami runs away with this one.
