Arkansas has a chance to beat them if KJ plays. If not, I don’t see them holding much shot. Hopefully KJ is ready to go and can play.

Not gonna make a prediction but OM has played 4 away games ... @Ga Tech, @Vandy, @LSU, @TAM. Not a staunch road schedule there. They got thumped by LSU and squeaked by TAM. I don't think they're that good of road team but Kiffin is a good motivator.
Historically speaking OM does seem snakebit in Fayetteville. 4th and 25.

4th and 25 was in Oxford. But your point is taken.

Oops. I couldn't remember but I just figured there was no way they made 4th and 25 in Oxford. We dodged a serious bullet in that one LOL (which I thought at the time).
We probably need to hire Freeze then. Losing to Memphis and giving up 4th and 25 to lose SECW all in same year. Fire Leach ... Hire Freeze ****

Our defense is 9th in scoring and our offense is 7th, true?

Not that we are good either, but OM best win is a 3 point win at home vs a 6-5 KY. And behind that is a shootout win vs auburn and a 3 point win vs 3-7 Aggie. Then Vandy, GT, Troy, Tulsa, central Arkansas. That's their 8 wins. We'd be 8-2 too.

anybody thinking we are as good as Mississippi is kidding themselves. We arent beating them at home. They damn near beat Bama at home. We are not that team.

Exactly. It always amazes me how a big portion of our message board fans think Ole Miss is going to lose every week, yet they don't. I remember all the "easy schedule but they'll still only win 8" posts. They will beat Arkansas and dismantle us, and will go 10-2. I guess some of y'all just post your hopes on here instead of what you actually know is going to happen.

We can't win on the road with a 3rd year program coach so that's no Bueno.

This game is my guilty pleasure game. It seems like something off the wall or crazy happens every year. I feel like if I named 10 crazy football games that I?ve watched in my lifetime, half of them would be Ole Miss/Arkansas games.

I mean, those people are overboard, but Ole Miss struggled against Tulsa, struggled against UK at home, got demolished by LSU, struggled @A&M.
Now, they did scare Bama and take care of Vandy, Auburn, Ga Tech, Central Arkansas, and Troy. And of course, those teams they struggled with they still came away with a W.
We are not good (and we seem to have regressed even), so I'm not trying to say it's going to be a pickem in Oxford or anything, but certainly @Arkansas is dangerous for them. Even playing us in Oxford, while they should be solidly favored, the only game that indicates they are really better than us is them showing up against Bama and UK whereas we just had our testicles shrivel up in both those games.

The spread is 2-1/2 ole miss. I think this is gonna go down to the wire.

The bigger question with this game is how does OM respond after a loss like that? They were playing for a shot at another NY6 bowl last week. Now they need Bama to lose to Auburn in Tuscaloosa to have any shot. I think State has a greater chance of winning the Egg Bowl than that happening. OM (#14) laying less than a FG against a 5-5 team playing for bowl eligibility makes me think taking OM is bait. Ark always plays them tough so give me the Hogs in a really physical game.

The first half spread is UM -0.5. That is the better play. They always start good until teams get used to the tempo.
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

It's at night with near freezing temps.
I'm gonna have my popcorn ready.

I think Arkansas is gonna win.

lol. They give up one more point per game than we do in conference. They are 4 points better overall. What does that makes us?
