Small looked really good vs Mizzu and BG 3 man fronts before leaving mizzu game. My worry is how many hits the shoulder can take. Whitehead is hit or Miss but he did look good vs the mizzu 3 man front. Wright is a guy that hasn’t impressed me in games like he did in spring and everything you heard from camp but you would think he could have a field day with a 3 man front. Praying Evans can play. It is critical to run against this defense. They play back to prevent the deep ball. You have to run on them to pull them up

I think Wright has been banged up in fall camp and not 100%, which is why Whitehead has slowly overtaken him. I could be completely wrong on that though.

My friends just said the same. Preordered it now. You on playstation? I guess it doesn’t matter, I think battlefield will be cross play.

Haven't played Battlefield in a long time. Probably a good choice. I Got into Destiny 2 hot and heavy right now on PS. Have the latest CODs but can't stand them

Whitehead is averaging 6.1 yards a carry on 19 carries against "SEC" defenses.

Ole Miss Rushing defense (103) is between Mizzous (worst in Football at 130) and South Carolina (in the 80s)

Anyone who has played football can tell that Whitehead is a good running back. Dunno why people keep saying he isn’t. He is a good blocker and he gets yards after contact. He also has pretty good vision but that just comes with playing. He will get better each game.

Ole Miss official Twitter been doing all kinds of smack talking while we have have been going to work. We will see which plan works come Saturday. Heupel has been praising defense all week. Kiffin has taking shots at his for weeks. When going get tough I think the team sticking together and on same page could help pull us ahead

I don't think the Ole miss Twitter account's game week strategy vs our football team going to work has any bearing on the outcome Saturday lol

What's your honest assessment of our chances sans Evans? I think he's a game changer. I go from mildly optimistic to mildly pessimistic.

It hurts, but Heupel is proving to me he can make about anything work. I’m 💯 on Hooker being a far bigger piece of the puzzle. He’s easily the best QB since Dobbs. If he keeps it up, he is going to create his own category.

This game is going to be a tennis match. Hold serve, and look for chances to break their serve. Our D gives us the edge to break serve enough to win.

If we were 100% healthy, I think we'd have the ability to win by 20. As it is, I think we can maybe squeak by by 3. We'll see what happens.

I’ve listened to a couple of podcasts this week who’ve made the South Carolina defense from the second half of Saturday’s game out to be the 85 Bears! Saying they shut Tennessee down and Tennessee couldn’t do anything, but it was already to late. Never mentioning it could have been Tennessee letting off the gas.

Drives me crazy!

4 attempted passes in the second half. If that’s true, there’s no way our full offense was being run.

At the risk of oversimplifying it, he is worth a long touchdown run that Small and others are not capable of, so I think we are short 7 points here automatically which hurts real bad.

I understand what you're saying brother. I want Evans to play too. Just saying don't undervalue or under estimate what Whitehead has done either. He's a Freshman. He's done well so far. Given the chance...he could possibly shine.

Hell, we have a walk on RB that has a college TD. Ya just never know what might happen.

He dances too much most of the time. He needs to hit the hole hard. He did on the TD run but danced too much otherwise.
