I like Prewitt, but eventually JJ is going to have to take over them. I think South Alabama wins this game 20-17. Lamar is better than last year, but come up just short. South Alabama's win streak ends next week at NC State.

i think early in the season, secondary is the weakest on any team....dust off Ray Alborn's air raid siren and air it out!!!  i think So Bama strong point is rush defense.

South Alabama head coach Joey Jones on Lamar:

[i]On Lamar:[/i]

“They are a much-improved ball team. They won 58-0 last week, and they have everyone back on their team. They brought in some really good players on their offensive line, and shored up some things. They’re trying to run the football more. You can tell they have really spent some time on their running game. I thought one of the negatives last year was they were really good throwing the football but didn’t run it as well. I think they knew that, and they have really developed their running game. They will be a much more balanced team offensively. And defensively, they are more athletic especially inside. They have some defensive tackles who are very good football players. They played us really well last year. I thought we had a good day offensively, but we didn’t score much. We need to be able to punch the ball in the end zone more [this year], and our kids are fully aware of that.”

[i]On preparing for an experienced team like Lamar:[/i]

“We really don’t change anything about how we prepare other than we look at our opponent week-to-week. Our kids realize that they [Lamar] will be a much-improved football team. From year one to year two, we became a much better football team and likewise with them. I think they have had our game circled, and our kids realize that as well.”

Ha, ha!  Funny.  We open the stadium this weekend against the Houston Cougars.  Should be a packed house.
