Alabama vs. Southern Miss: How to watch NCAA Football online, TV channel, live stream info, game time
Written by Luck Wilson on September 26, 2021
Through 3 Quarters
A great path to victory is to simply outgain your opponent on the field, and that’s working so far for the Alabama Crimson Tide (with 509 yards vs. 173 yards). After three quarters it’s looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the Southern Miss Golden Eagles as Bama lead 49-7.
The Crimson Tide have been relying on QB Bryce Young, who has passed for four TDs and 313 yards on 22 attempts, and RB Roydell Williams, who has rushed for one TD and 110 yards on 11 carries. Speaking of playmakers, WR Jameson Williams went all the way with a kickoff return for touchdown in the first quarter.
No one has had a standout game offensively for Southern Miss, but WR Chandler Pittman has led the way with one touchdown.

What to Know
After a two-game homestand, the Southern Miss Golden Eagles will be on the road. They will take on the Alabama Crimson Tide at 7:30 p.m. ET Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Bama should still be riding high after a win, while the Golden Eagles will be looking to regain their footing.
Southern Miss came up short against the Troy Trojans last week, falling 21-9.
Meanwhile, it was a close one, but last week Bama sidestepped the Florida Gators for a 31-29 victory. Bama relied on the efforts of RB Brian Robinson Jr., who punched in one rushing touchdown in addition to snatching one receiving TD, and QB Bryce Young, who passed for three TDs and 233 yards on 35 attempts.
Southern Miss have to know they’ll be fighting an uphill battle given the 45 point spread they are up against. True fans might be the only ones betting on them, currently 0-2 ATS, to cover the spread.
The Golden Eagles are now 1-2 while the Crimson Tide sit at 3-0. Two offensive stats to keep an eye on: Southern Miss is stumbling into the matchup with the 209th fewest passing yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 146.3 on average. Bama has experienced some struggles of their own as they are 152nd worst in the nation in rushing yards per game, with only 132 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
