In Reply to: And, Southern Miss (USM) had a hfc hired away by SMU posted by TheHappyBurgermeister on September 20, 2025 at 16:23:26
SMU (Southern Methodist University) and USM (Southern Miss) have played each other in football.
They met when both schools were members of Conference USA (SMU was in C-USA from 2005–2012 before moving to the AAC).
According to series records, Southern Miss leads the all-time series.
One notable meeting: 2006, Southern Miss beat SMU 42–31 in Dallas.
They also played in 2007, when Southern Miss won 28–7 in Hattiesburg.
So, while not a long rivalry, they did cross paths during SMU’s years in Conference USA.
