UConn football Week 3 matchup at Southern Mississippi, how to watch, prediction

The UConn football team prepares for its Week 3 matchup at Southern Mississippi, following a 38-14 home loss to Maryland. The Huskies will face off against the Golden Eagles in a road game, with kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m. at Renasant Stadium in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. UConn's offense, which struggled to find a rhythm in their season opener, will aim to improve their consistency as they look to bounce back with a win.

Quarterback Kalieb Osborne completed 10 of 21 passes for 156 yards against Maryland, but may need to step up his game to lead the team to victory. Southern Mississippi enters the game on the heels of a 43-8 loss to Auburn, showing a similar struggle to find their footing. UConn will heavily rely on their running game, spearheaded by Kenji Christian and Cyncir Bowers, to create challenges for the Golden Eagles' defense.
