New Orleans Bowl Odds - Middle Tennessee St. vs. Southern Miss - opened at Southern Mississippi State -3 and the line on this game has hung mostly around -4 ½ including at BetUS.com.
Tommy Long, a BetUS.com analyst, had this to say about the game:
"Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders can win if they can force USM to make mistakes on offense and attack through the air, the USM defense was horrible against the pass, ranking 110th in the nation.
"Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles can win if they can stop Dwight Dasher from beating them through the air, while their pass defense is bad; they have a respectable run defense and facing a team that doesn't have a star tailback it plays to their advantage.
"When handicapping this game, don't be fooled by the two teams records, USM has faced much tougher competition, including 4 games against Bowl teams including 3 against BCS conference opponents. Middle Tennessee State is 0-2 versus teams with winning records this season."
