I really don't understand this business model. I don't think I have ever made an athletic attire purchase based on what school uses what uniform. I think Adidas had to be the only vendor authorized for official MSU shirts, etc., but I quit going and haven't bought anything new in years. Being forced maybe is the reason I haven't. I guess they know their business better than I but I really don't understand which way the money flows.


I know the brands have been battling it out in basketball forever with signature shoe deals. Adidas and Nike have helped determines what school a basketball player will go to for years.

I do know that Ole Miss will retain creative control over all designs.

Have an upvote.

ESPN's strategy around night games has shifted. They no longer view the night game as the main event. They want to keep the Gameday crowd tuned in as long as possible. ND @ BYU also features two undefeated and likely playoff teams whereas I think's Tennessee's odds are pretty long at this juncture.
My model interestingly enough prefers A&M -1.
I don't know that Silverfield is the answer but I don't think any of this is particularly his fault either. Arkansas simply isn't committing the resources in football to really be competitive in the SEC. There's just a discernable difference in talent between Arky and everyone else in the SEC.
Pollsters are giving credit for good wins and not punishing losses against good teams as badly this year. A&M isn't a good win to a lot of us but nationally it resonates a little better.
Isn't SB Nation defunct? Thought they got bought at some point.

Road letdown against a good team after a very emotional home win against a top 10 opponent. Sounds familiar...

Brandon shite on Stingray so hard and herd mentality struck as all of the Barstool bros began harassing him constantly. Dude's clearly on the spectrum and never had any ill intentions. Very bad form on Brandon's part.

re: What if Ole Miss Beats Mizzou

The SEC has proven it's gonna be week to week this year. There are about 10 teams that can beat any of the other 10 on a given day.
Frankly if they're contributing $10m to NIL annually, they can give us the ugliest unis in football. Ole Miss' colors are pretty fool proof though.
Nike completely messed up the Ole Miss powder blues in baseball last year which is why we barely wore them. I don't disagree though.

Ole Miss is moving from Nike to Adidas in a seven-year agreement that will place the Rebels among the apparel company's most prominent college partners.

The agreement is still being finalized, but the switch will occur July 1, 2027, and run through 2034. The total annual value will exceed the $20 million Miami will receive from Nike under the 10-year agreement it recently signed.

Adidas will also provide significant NIL value to Ole Miss athletes as part of the arrangement. The move will end a relationship between Ole Miss and Nike that began in 1999. The university signed its current agreement with Nike in 2015.


Adidas has been making moves in college football recently, specifically in guaranteed NIL contributions. They will be contributing up to $10m annually to Ole Miss' NIL pool, very similarly to how they are doing with Tennessee. Adidas was instrumental in Tennessee landing DGG.

ESPN also doesn't believe the 11am slot is a bad slot to have a good game. They'll roll out of Gameday with 3m viewers right into an undefeated matchup.
Kiffin also brought it to Ole Miss for the Egg Bowl.

Manziel did the heavy lifting for Sumlin at A&M. 20-6 with him and 31-20 without him.
If the R's lose the midterms, Pete may not be around long enough to implement this. Not sure why this dude likes to pretend he's a templar in a holy war.
