South Alabama question

[F'N Hawks]

How good is this South Alabama team? I see they are in their second year as a program and have played nobody, but they are 6-0. They are a favorite this week at UC-Davis and I find that hard to believe.

Does anybody know how good they are or anything about them?

They beat Lamar 26-0 this past week. They've got a pretty solid team in it's second year. They've mostly played sub-FCS teams until Lamar I believe. In any case, the entire game LU vs USA can be viewed here: http://www.lamarcardinals.com/allaccess/?media=187624

The sportsbook line is South Alabama (-5) at UC Davis.

They also beat Nicholls State this year...

They are unclassified (which explains why UC-Davis has nothing to gain from them from a playoff standpoint), but to me - they are a middle of the pack FCS team this year. Next year, they should be in line with some of the higher ups in FCS based on their amount of scholarships and the direction they are going in, as far as on the field capabilities...

I don't know, but we'll have a much better idea after Saturday.
