Jaguars are 4-4 overall, 3-1 in Sun Belt
The Jaguars are 4-4 overall and 3-1 in Sun Belt Conference play entering Saturday’s home game with Georgia Southern . And South Alabama got to that record using four “mini-streaks” of two games each.
“This is about as much prosperity as we can handle, so everybody brace themselves,” first-year South Alabama coach Major Applewhite said with a laugh. “It’s time to go win three in a row.” “It’s really a blast,” offensive guard Reed Buys said. “It’s kind of what you dream of doing, getting lined up and running every play. It’s what we thrive off of, and it was good to be able to do that.”
“We definitely have some momentum,” Buys said. “It’s all mentality. You’ve got to stay consistent and I think that’s going to in the work that we put in this week. You can’t dial it back, you can’t get comfortable, so it’s the same approach every day. A 1-0 mindset. You can’t get complacent. Georgia Southern once again has a prolific passing offense behind quarterback JC French, averaging better than 250 yards per game through the air. But the Eagles are porous on defense, allowing more than 30 points and a league-worst 457.6 yards per game.“It’s a different type of game this week as opposed to everything being on the run from a defensive standpoint,” Applewhite said. “They’ve got three really good backs that can run the ball, but they want to throw the football.
