I’ve admittedly not seen Ole Miss play this year outside of some select few highlights on ESPN, but for those who are familiar with the program and seen them play, what’s their strengths and what do you think they will try to do to stop LSU defensively, and score on LSU offensively in the game?

I think they've got themselves one of them running quarterbacks.

Which always presents problems.

They play pretty tough and with heart

Not a lot of talent but they play with a lot of heart

I expect they’ll blitz a lot bc there’s no way they play straight up in the secondary

With our second string offensive line getting the nod id expect a lot of disguised looks and blitzes

Red rover red rover blue renegade looks, some atomic wedgies, and probably cover 2 slap ya mammi zone

Yep, they always seem to play beyond their usual abilities when they face off against LSU every year. I feel they’re going to bring everything they can muster when they face us this Saturday. It’s their game of the century.

Yea, they're the SEC answer to Georgia Southern. Option attack, but faster than GaSo. Could be problematic and Aranda needs to get them ready.

They have a running back playing quarterback, he can’t throw worth a shite but he is probably the fastest qb in the country.

We usually have trouble with them up in Oxford (2011 notwithstanding).

It's Ole Miss superbowl they will play inspired.

Has to be a let down for LSU after last week lets just hope not to much let down.

QB is really fast

TAMU had to go to less than 4:00 minutes left in the game to go up by 2 scores.

But

Bo Nix threw for 340 yards on them.

They only had 266 yards offense on Auburn.

Historically they bring the desire to beat LSU and pull that off more times than we’d like to remember or admit. We better be ready for a war, because they comin’ too.

They run the ball well (over 5 yards per carry) and they can, occasionally, throw the deep ball. They rely on their running QB, Plumlee and senior RB Phillips to carry the ball and they account for over half of Ole Miss' rushing yards. They also run a freshman, Ealy quite a bit.

They've played 2 freshman QBs this year, not sure why, but Corral is the better passer and Plumlee is the better runner. From a receiving standpoint, the team leans heavily on Elijah Moore, a sophomore out of Fort Lauderdale - good ball skills, but a little small. They have a couple of other receivers and they throw to the TEs occasionally, but no one other than Moore has more than 10 or 11 catches on the year. Moore has 4 of their 9 receiving TDs and he's the only one averaging more than 20 yards receiving per game.

Because they are not a great passing team, they are not that good on 3rd down. They don't protect the football particularly well (4 INTs versus 9 TD passes, 14 fumbles, losing 7 of them).

They are scoring 26+ points per game, but keep in mind that is primarily bolstered by a 40 and 41 points on Southeastern and New Mexico State. They did score 31 on Alabama, but gave up 59.

If we're clicking for 4 quarters, this should be a 52 - 24 type game with the outcome decided midway through the 3rd quarter.

SEC Offense: Yards/game

LSU #1) 379 yards/game

SEC Defense: Yards given up/game

Ole Miss #14) 274 yards/game


I like our chances.

I think they lead the SEC in rushing. Shifty QB, decent RBs, and a good Oline. Plus,this is probably their most important game outside of the Egg bowl. They will try to shorten the game by using as much clock as they can. We certainly have more talent but they will be up for the game, so we need to show up with our game face on. We do that and we win convincingly.
