Tech vs

AQ: 10-54-2
Non-AQ: 105-79-1
FCS: 14-1

USM vs

AQ: 18-53
Non-AQ: 137-61-1
FCS: 11-0

Head to Head:
USM won 3 out of 4:

14-30 in Ruston
16-13 in Hattiesburg
13-12 in Ruston
19-17 in Hattiesburg

Winning seasons:
Tech-9
USM-20

Bowl games:
Tech-4
USM-15

Avg record per season:
Tech: 6-6
USM: 7.5 - 5

Fair enough and when you put it like that, the perception is that things are closer than they actually are, the reality is winning that extra game(and a half?) over a 24 year period is a big difference. That's one program consistently getting it done, 20 winning seasons out of a possible 24, and the other consistently coming up just short 9 winning seasons out of a possible 24.

The "reality" is that it is close. The "perception" is that is not. But what hurts Tech is that we will win 3 or 4 games sometimes. Southern Miss NEVER does that. They consistently win 7 games.

You're wrong, if we were talking about a period of 5 or even 10 years, yes 1 game is that close, over a quarter of a century, no one game is not that close. Again, it's about one program consistently getting it done 20 out of 24 times and another consistently coming up just short.

If we were talking about the difference between 7-5 and 8-4, I'd probably agree with you, but we're talking about the great dividing line of a winning season.
