Injury Report
Neither Southern Miss nor Louisiana Tech had released an official availability report for this game as of Monday morning, as those reports are issued later in game week. Quarterbacks Landry Lyddy and Blake Baker are the most important statuses to monitor, since each leads his team in passing. Steven Robinson and Andrew Burnette also carry significant workloads, so any limitation for either player would affect rushing props and the spread.
