The schedule is challenging, and the team\u2019s overall talent level compared to league peers is questionable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For glass-half full fans, they\u2019ll point to Florida State transfer Tate Rodemaker as the potential solution to the team\u2019s offensive woes. Southern Miss ranked 12th in the <a href=\"https:\/\/herosports.com\/college-football\/sun-belt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sun Belt<\/a> in scoring in 2023, averaging just 23.2 points per game.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Losing running back Frank Gore Jr. hurts, but Rodemaker could give the program a passing game after years of subpar quarterback play.

Six Southern Miss opponents scored at least 40 points, with the Golden Eagles going 0-6 in those games.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The injuries allowed some players to gain valuable experience, which could add to the defense\u2019s improvement in 2024. Additionally, new defensive coordinator Clay Bignell holds Power Four analyst experience and comes to Southern Miss after a productive year coaching Eastern Illinois\u2019 defense. Eastern Illinois was among the top 10 FCS teams in turnovers gained and in the top 20 in scoring defense.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bignell, coupled with the return of six starters, could make the Golden Eagles\u2019 weak defense into a more consistent and capable unit immediately. Jalil Clemons is a game-wrecking blitzer who should help create chaos in opposing backfields. If other pieces fall into place, the defense could make a necessary step forward.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6a896cfa alignwide\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-21cd4368\"><a href=\"https:\/\/herosports.com\/betmgm-promotions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"147\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-21cd4368\" src=\"https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1\" alt=\"promo-page-banner\" title=\"PROMO-BANNER-2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-300x41.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-768x105.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-1024x139.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-750x102.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=384&amp;ssl=1 384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2024-southern-miss-football-season-prediction\">2024 Southern Miss Football Season Prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I can convince myself there\u2019s a path for Southern Miss to make a bowl game, but it\u2019s way easier for me to convince myself the Golden Eagles will fall well short of six wins.
