USM Golden Eagle '7s' play well against Prairie View

Forgive the Prairie View A&M Panthers for seeing double Saturday night against the University of Southern Mississippi. Not only did the visitors get knocked loopy by the Golden Eagles at Roberts Stadium, losing 34-7, but it was a pair of “Sevens” playing on either side of the football for USM that helped apply some of the most-telling, early shots.

Sophomore running back Desmond Johnson, No. 7 on offense, carried seven times for 32 yards in the first half and scored the Golden Eagles’ first two rushing touchdowns of the season, getting USM off to a 17-0 lead before an announced 27,316. Red-shirt freshman cornerback Deron Wilson, No. 7 on defense, made a splash in his second consecutive start, with four tackles, including a jarring, helmet-popping hit on Panther running back Donald Babers for a 4-yard loss, and broke up two passes.
