    The way to beat Ole Miss is to run the ball. We can't run it. We will lose.

    I actually disagree - They aren't athletic on defense, they will try the 3-8, but I don't see it being successful and they will be forced to blitz and I think we can burn them.

    Well, they are 117th in the country in rushing defense. But they are also 110th in the passing defense. So they are terrilbe at both.

    They will sit back in the 3-8 and try to force checkdowns and mistakes. Our margin for error will be very thing b/c they are going to score at will.

    I really don't agree with you here. I think our defense can cause a few stops - not many but enough.

    If we can continue to hit the check downs and not turn it over, their DL will not be able to put pressure on us. Its a really great setup for us to be successful. The GA game should give everyone on our offense a lot of confidence to move the ball. I don't think they will be able to make the swing passes and check downs be 3-4 yard gains. I think they will end up being 5-6 yard gains and that will work all the way down the field.

    I also expect us to burn clock. Our DL will cause them problems.

    Maybe I'm wrong, but this is a good matchup for us.
