Oklahoma is 20-point underdogs vs Ole Miss

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

And yet they lead at halftime

It’ll be interesting to see if they withstand it in the second half. Idk if that offense can keep scoring and I’m expecting Ole miss to hit a couple

We can hate the guy, but Kiffin is a hell of a lot better coach than Napier

That's great, but he still hasn't proven he can win at a place he's expected to.

 

[JCHateSteve]

This game is a perfect example of the SEC this year. No matter what you're ranked, you better not sleep on anyone. You'll find yourself in a knife fight.

I know some like Lane Kiffin as a play caller, but IMO, Heupel > Kiffin. Lane tries to be too clever at times and it comes back to bite him. Heupel has a good balance of sticking with what works while throwing in a new wrinkle every now and then.

Heupel's strength is not just play calling, Heupel is building a program here similar to what Saban and Smart have done (maybe not as good but we will see). Heupel's off season work has been as impressive as his GameDay ability.

My bad. I missed that part. Time for me to take a nap.

Haha, no problem. I was just agreeing with you and didn't mean to call you out.

Why the hell would Ole Miss be sleeping on anyone? They've already dropped a home game to Kentucky. We know Kiffin can and will lose games he's not supposed to.

I didn’t take it that way. Enjoy weekend

Also, I would say that it's becoming clearer and clearer that Venables benched Jackson Arnold wayyy too soon.

I mean that’s like saying a Jones was better than Dooley. It’s not hard to be better than Napier but it doesn’t make Kiffin worth all the hype he has either

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I was probably wrong again. I think Kiffin is tanking so he can get the UF job.

Did he? He wasn’t doing anything for them.
A good ole benching is the ultimate wake up call and motivation

No idea. On paper there's no way Ole Miss should be losing this game. But here we are.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Watching Ole Miss look weak on offensive planning makes me think, though it's against his character , Lane might be flopping so if he goes to FL there's less yammering in Oxford.

 

[vol94]

Ole Miss will win this game but man, what a day it would be of both Ole Miss and Indiana lost.

Indiana has an easy schedule so Idk how good they are. Plus, the loser of Bama/Mizz should be out of playoff hunt.

It will be an interesting November.

Go Vols!

That’s funny .
Or he’s actually being the fraud that Al Davis told everyone about years ago.

He should not have benched him for struggling against our elite defense IMO. All QB's have struggled against us.

 

[Dirtyhairies]

Plus take Ole Miss out of playoff contention.

In other words, put a stake in them.

We were not the only defense he struggled against.

This 10000000 times.

No disagreement there.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Agreed. They put way too much stock in the backup who had success moving the ball against our 2nd and 3rd stringers .

 

[JCHateSteve]

Not even gonna measure that?

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

That’s a pretty week face mask.

Unless they changed the rule, that was not a penalty. Grasp AND TWIST or some such word in the definition. Saw no twist action.

Anybody got the rule handy. Lost all my rule book links on old computer.

TD tree rat!
