USM picked up a good OOC opponent this year...

they have Virginia coming to Hattiesburg. Virginia lost to William and Mary over the weekend.

they got Nebraska a few years back in what was a down year for Nebraska standards. We seem to get Oregon during their Pac 10 run, BYU during their one loss season, West Virginia when they were winning the Big East and now Georgia Tech during an ACC run. Oklahoma State in '98 and '99 was good for us though.

2001 Big Ten champs, 2002 played USM at Hattiesburg and lost 23-20 on their way to a 5-7 season. And that was a home-and-home with the Eagles defeating a 0-11 Illinois team 24-7 at Champaign in 1997.
