- On Saturday, Southern Miss beat Louisiana-Lafayette 22-10, fueled by Micah Davis's 98-yard touchdown catch, the game's and Eagles' longest play.

- Season-Long inconsistency persisted, as there hasn’t been one game or half when offense, defense and special teams all performed well together, and special teams ran into the punter.
