Southeastern Louisiana travels to Mobile to play South Alabama in week 1. The owner of the USA message board said this will be a tougher game than many fans realize. I don't know anything about SELA football except they hosted an FCS playoff game last season.

Anyone making the trip to Mobile?

Thanks for any replies.

Well SLU plays HCU in Week 0 so they will have a game under their belt already.

Defense will be exceptionally good, some are saying better than last year which was suffocating.

Offense has a lot to prove. New OC this year who replaced a very bad nepo hire of an OC from the past few years.
Typically Scelfo rolls out 2 QB’s. The main QB is a smaller, mobile QB and up in the air who will be QB2, but both should be better passers. Running backs are extremely deep, and should be very good. Lost the top WR from last year to Wisconsin, so a lot of young guys but some talent in there. Oline should be solid.

I know nothing of USA, but these are the type of FBS games we typically hang around for 3.5 quarters then shoot ourselves in the foot and lose by 14-17 points.

If I had to make a prediction, I would say USA wins 24-10 or so.

SLU will be a good Southland conference team. SA will win.

A nepo hire that moved up a level this season.

SLU did substantially worse in every category of offense under his tenure as OC while having better offensive talent. So sure MTSU hired him for some reason, but it’s not because he was some outstanding OC.
