Dariyan Wiley - Makes splash playsWiley compiled three receptions for 137 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 24-7 loss against Southern Miss.
Jiya Wright - Solid in reliefWright was 5-for-12 passing for 106 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 24-7 defeat against Southern Miss.
ImpactWright took over for Blake Murphy late in the first half after Murphy threw his third interception of the day. While he finished with 106 yards, 68 of those came on one touchdown throw to Dariyan Wiley. It's unclear if Wright will remain the starter against Troy on Nov. 11.

Blake Murphy - Benched after rough startMurphy completed 7 of 17 passes for 81 yards and three interceptions during Saturday's 24-7 loss to Southern Miss.
ImpactAfter logging back-to-back 300-yard games, Murphy got off to a terrible start against Southern Miss, completing just 41.2 percent of his attempts and throwing a trio of picks before being benched right before the half in favor of Jiya Wright. With Hunter Herring (collarbone) out for the season, the ULM quarterback situation could remain fluid for the remainder of 2023.
