Southern Miss arrives in El Paso for Saturday’s game against UTEP having achieved every college football team’s No. 1 goal.
With a 5-5 record, they are playing a meaningful game on Thanksgiving weekend, needing a win against 1-10 UTEP to qualify for a bowl.
While that always tops any to-do list, the Golden Eagles are doing something even more important that set all that up.
Southern Miss is playing its best football heading into Thanksgiving weekend.
