Arkansas State secured a 23-13 victory over Southern Mississippi in a grind-it-out contest on October 15, 2026. Clune Van Andel contributed three field goals from distances of 29, 40, and 44 yards, while Kenyon Clark and Timothy Carter scored rushing touchdowns for the Red Wolves (3-4, 1-2 Sun Belt Conference). Despite having five punts, including four that ended in quick drives, Arkansas State managed to score on five longer drives ranging from seven to 13 plays. They also controlled the final 7:21 of the game with a 14-play drive down to the Southern Miss 11-yard line, giving them a significant 20-minute edge in time of possession despite only slightly outgaining Southern Miss in total offense.
Landry Lyddy threw for 208 yards and a touchdown but was intercepted twice for the Golden Eagles (1-5, 0-2), who also surrendered three downs. Steven Robinson scored a rushing touchdown for Southern Mississippi. Arkansas State will next play at home against Georgia State, while Southern Miss faces Louisiana-Lafayette at home.
