The Southern Miss Golden Eagles and the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks meet Saturday in college Football action from Malone Stadium. Here’s an Louisiana-Monroe vs Southern Miss Prediction. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best LA-Monroe vs Southern Miss pick.

Southern Miss Golden Eagles Betting Preview

Southern Miss took a shutout loss to Kentucky in their first Game of the 2024 season, but would earn a victory the next week 35-10 versus Southeastern Louisiana. The next two Games were losses 49-24 to South Florida and 44-7 versus Jacksonville State.

In the Louisiana Game the Eagles were down 17-13 at the break and couldn’t score from there in a 23-13 defeat. Tate Rodemaker had 140 passing yards. Rodrigues Clark (61 yards) and Kenyon Clay (10 yards; two touchdowns) led the running Game in the loss.

LA-Monroe Warhawks Betting Preview

Over on the Warhawks’ side, they posted a couple of wins in their first two outings over Jackson State 30-14 and UAB 32-6. LA-Monroe’s first loss of the 2024 season was versus Texas 51-3, but they’d topple Troy 13-9 the next week.

The Warhawks faced off against James Madison last weekend. In that one LA-Monroe outscored the Dukes 7-6 in the final quarter to hold on for the win 21-19. QB Aidan Armenta logged 147 yards passing, one TD and one interception while Ahmad Hardy rushed 14 times for 82 yards and a score.

Louisiana-Monroe vs Southern Miss Prediction

I’m going with LA-Monroe. The Warhawks were down early versus James Madison last weekend but rallied to post the eventual win. There’s plenty to improve on, though. LA-Monroe had a tepid 257 tota. yards (147 passing) with 15 first downs, eight penalties and two turnovers in their victory.

As for Southern Miss, they had a pretty rough offensive outing against Louisiana in their latest loss. The Eagles posted just 177 yards (140 passing), 4.4 yards per play, eight first downs, 18:10 in time of possession and 1-of-8 on third-down tries. Southern Miss needs a big shot in the arm this weekend and I don’t think they’ll get enough.
