TWTW: Long Day In Mississippi, Eagles and Rebs Both Lose

((HT: WDAM-TV/Hattiesburg))

Southern Miss lost 50-43 to #15 University of Houston in a shootout.

The Cougars (7-1, 3-1 C-USA) drive the ball 77 yards in the final minute for a seven point lead against Larry Fedora's visiting Golden Eagles (5-4, 3-2) for the victory.

USM's offense recorded over 600 total yards against the Cougar's defense. Houston leads the nation in total offense and recorded 750 yards against the Eagles.

Cougars quarterback, Case Keenum, completed 44 passes for 559 total yards and five touchdowns.

Meanwhile, Ole Miss lost on the Plains to Auburn 33-20.

Chris Todd passed for 212 yards, Ben Tate ran for 144 yards and Walter McFadden returned an interception for a touchdown.

Sufficed to say, TBH was quite pleased and may now have to stay home for all remaining home games for the War Eagle since she decided not to get wet and sit at Jordan-Hare for the first time this season.

Here's FOSG Heather Cook with your highlights of both...
Hang on 'til the end and you'll see her get a little distracted...
