New Orleans Bowl
The first bowl game kicks off Tuesday night.
2 STAR: ARKANSAS STATE (+17) over Southern Mississippi
The Indians are a very good rushing team averaging almost 200 yards per game. I think they can move the ball on the ground and chew up some clock to keep this game within the number. Arkansas State's weakness on defense was against the run, something that Southern Miss did not do very well this year. I don't see the Golden Eagles blowing this one open and I don't know how interested they will be to play in the New Orleans Bowl for a second straight year against a weak opponent like Arkansas State. Could be a flat spot for Southern Miss, I'll take the points!
