How to Watch Southern Mississippi at Georgia Southern: Stream College Football Live, TV Channel

It will be a battle of the Eagles on Thursday night when Georgia Southern hosts Southern Mississippi for a Sun Belt Conference matchup.

Georgia Southern looks to get back to .500 on the season when it hosts Southern Mississippi on Thursday night. This Sun Belt matchup features Southern Miss (3-2), who is trying to stay perfect in conference after beating Appalachian State nearly a month ago. The Golden Eagles are trying to win four of their last five games and build off a 42-25 win over Jacksonville State nearly two weeks ago. Southern Miss and Georgia Southern will both benefit from having nearly two weeks off to prepare for this matchup. Georgia Southern is trying to bounce back from a 35-10 loss against James Madison that ended its chances of winning three in a row. The Golden Eagles will have an easier path if they are able to control the turnover battle like they’ve done a lot this season. Southern Miss is 10th in the FBS with a +6 turnover margin.

That huge turnover margin was elevated tremendously for Southern Miss when it dominated Jacksonville State in its last game. The Golden Eagles compiled four turnovers against the Gamecocks. Jacksonville State wasn’t able to score its first touchdown of the game until late in the fourth quarter when the Golden Eagles were up by as much as 28-3. Once the defense was able to establish an advantage, quarterback Braylon Braxton and running back Jeffery Pittman took advantage on offense. Braxton threw for two touchdowns with 152 yards passing, while Pittman scored two more touchdowns on the ground. Southern Miss was actually outgained in the game though, so Southern Miss might have to step its offense up just a tad more to pull off this road win.

The same could be said about Georgia Southern, who came out flat against James Madison in its last game. The Eagles didn’t score their first touchdown until the third quarter against the Dukes and were shutout in the first and fourth quarters. Georgia Southern was outgained 479 to 192 yards, but at least it didn’t turn over the ball. The Eagles leading rusher was limited to just 14 yards. Quarterback JC French IV threw for 165 yards with a 12-yard touchdown to Taylor Bradshaw. But that same kind of performance won’t cut it against Southern Miss if Georgia Southern is to defend home field.
