The Fiesta Bowl presents a contrast in styles. Miami wants to control the game with its offensive and defensive lines. Ole Miss wants to push tempo and spread the field. As Dalton Wasserman and Max Chadwick discussed on the PFF College Football Show, the game comes down to which team is able to impose its style first.

Trinidad Chambliss vs. Miami’s Pass Rush​

Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss has been one of the breakout players of the College Football Playoff. A Division II...

I know Lacy was listed as Probable on the injury report, but what are everyone's thoughts on how his injury plays into this PFF analysis? Will he be playing fewer snaps?
 
Running qb’s are a difference maker. They have a great offense but if we can stop the scrambling we win.

We are getting over 30. Just need to slow them down.

No but he’s clearly hurt.

You're not gonna COMPLETELY stop the QB from making plays with his feet. That's unreasonable to expect. But we can make him extremely uncomfortable. QB's who can extend plays are very hard to deal with, but if you can put hands on him often, I've found that they sometimes get frustrated and will force plays. (which can lead to turnovers)

Remember, they're not RB's. They're not built mentally to get hit often.
 
Weird write up. Both analysts lay out how Miami has the edge in basically every conceivable match up but then one concludes Ole Miss will win and the other picks Miami in a close game.

Do you think Miami is going to press up on those Ole Miss WRs and play man like Georgia ?

Lacy has 300 carries on the year and is clearly banged up a little. Short week with travel and away from all the main recovery resources they have in their facilities at home.

Wouldn’t be shocked to see us really bottle him up or it all catch up to him
 
Ole Miss needs to get hit in this game, plenty and often. QB will think about running and escaping twice and the WR will short-arm throws and be hesitant running routes.

Honestly, our strategy tomorrow is the same one as it was against Ohio State. Be aggressive defensively and hit, offensively, control TOP, get first downs and run the ball plenty.
