Heads Up Arkansas State Football Game

Just a free word of advice if anyone wants to make the trek to Jonesboro for the game in September. Since my wife is an ASU grad we will possible go, so I made reservations at the Embassy Suites. This hotel is much like our location for the Indigo Hotel, in that you can easily walk to the stadium from the hotel. Rates run around $170. So if you are thinking of going you might want to go ahead and book a room as you can always cancel unless you do the $149 rate which is no cancel and pay up front. Newer hotel which we stay in when we visit family in the area.

It was a great weekend for Southern Miss basketball!




Big Basketball Game Tomorrow

Which USM team will show up tomorrow? How effective will our defense be against Moore and Samuel? We will have the answer soon. Tyler Mormon may be the key to defense against Samuel. Moore is a handful that can light it up, so he will need special attention. We will need to play many players to stay fresh and match their quickness—no stupid turnovers. The game will be close, so we need to make FTs. They embarrassed us the last time out, so we need to have a revengeful attitude. I don't know if Perez is hurt, but we will need him. It will be a close victory for us. 72- 70
