Jaguars host Southeastern Louisiana on Saturday
“The mood in the locker room right after , everybody was disappointed and shocked,” linebacker James Miller said. “All fall camp, all summer, we’d been feeling like we were going to be the best and working to be the best. And then we got punched in the mouth.
Western Kentucky had similar success vs. the Jaguars in last December’s New Orleans Bowl, with Austin Reed passing for 497 yards and four touchdowns in a 44-23 rout. Though there might have been some similarities in the way the game played out, Wommack insisted that the Green Wave attacked the Jaguars in a different fashion than the Hilltoppers did nine months ago.
Not that the blame was all on the defense. South Alabama’s La’Damian Webb fumbled the ball away on the second snap of the game, giving Tulane the ball on the Jaguars’ side of midfield. The USA offense turned the ball over four times in total, with quarterback Carter Bradley throwing two interceptions and fumbling after a sack. The Jaguars’ offensive line allowed five sacks and committed a number of pre-snap penalties.
Tulane wide receiver Lawrence Keys III scores as South Alabama safety Keith Gallmon Jr. attempts to a make a tackle during the second quarter of an NCAA college football game in New Orleans, Saturday, Sept. 2, 2023. Though Southeastern Louisiana is an FCS program, the Lions are no pushover. SLU went 9-4 and reached the second round of the FCS playoffs in 2022, and hung with Mississippi State for most of the first half in a 48-7 loss last week in Starkville.
“… On defense, they are sound and not overly complicated. They do a good job of not allowing big plays over the top and put hats to the ball in the run game really well. And then from an offensive perspective, it’s similar to what we saw last week with Tulane and even similar to some of the things we do offensively.
