HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) – Southern Miss hasn’t had a losing football season since 1993. The Golden Eagles haven’t missed the postseason since 2001.
Both streaks are crashing to an end during a dismal season.
Southern Miss (0-10, 0-6 Conference USA) is the only remaining team in the Football Bowl Subdivision that hasn’t won a game. The latest setback was a 34-6 loss on Saturday to SMU, a team the Golden Eagles had beaten three straight times coming into this season.
The nightmare continues for first-year coach Ellis Johnson, who has had to deal with a rash of injuries, a difficult schedule and an increasingly angry fan base that is used to winning on a regular basis.
Southern Miss faces UTEP on Saturday in its final home game before a road trip to Memphis.
