Jeremy Shapiro is a sports writer for SB Nation and he's been covering Rice University sports for the past four years. We asked Jeremy if he would respond to some questions that we have concerning the Rice at Southern Mississippi football game that takes place this Saturday and he kindly agreed.
1. Rice was 2-2 at this time last year and, even though the schedule has been harder, can you tell us the feeling around the team this week?
The mood certainly was somber after Saturday’s loss to North Texas. Coming up short in double overtime is never fun, but it was the way they lost the game that made it especially bad.
