The Ole Miss Thread

[fincane]

Don't forget not picking and and tackling TE's.

RS made every goddam tight end look like Greg Olsen.

People brought up that Swedish A&M TE and I'm sure people were very worried about that Ohio State TE Klare. Those scars run deep

 

[Genghis Cane]

Are we the favourites? #6 against #10, no?

Betting odds have the line at UM -3.5

 

[JgDaCane]

I feel like most of this board only watched Ole Miss tonight. Dream matchup for Miami. We run for 200+. Easy.

 

[Brains]

I’m kinda leaning to mario tough and phizical ball being the way. Control time of possession to not let them have the ball and run tempo. Contain chambliss

It is the way.

 

[Manfred_Cane]

They haven't played a team better than us all season and we just beat a team that's better than them.

Spot the **** ball

 

[U_Canes]

The portal is also going to be a strange wrinkle here. Lacy and Chambliss both seem set to leave after the year ends. And this games in the middle of the portal

 

[go_canes_17]

DL is going to have to be patient and not get too far upfield and let Chambliss scramble while also generating enough pressure to ensure he doesn’t have time to throw to those receivers. On offense - run the ball, eat clock, keep defense fresh. Passing game will also be there.

Will be a great battle of different styles.

Does the NCAA really want a team whose coach left them prior to the playoffs to win it all, just for all those players to transfer to LSU? Also - the portal opens - do some of those players announce it now? So weird lmao

How good/bad is their defense? Compare it to an ACC team we’ve played

 

[Hstokes1447]

When our defense has struggled it has been high tempo situations so a bit concerning

This is the game where Bain and Mesidor have to be ok with coming out of the game, staff have to rotate and keep them fresh.

 

[SWFLSWAGG17]

We HAVE to give Bain & Mezzie a serious or two off to keep them fresh all game. At some point we need our depth to be serviceable, which I think they will be.

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

Their defensive and offensive coordinators are still there and they just beat Ga. Put down whatever you are smoking.

UGA lost to Bama. They let their QB get his brains scrambled by a mediocre DL. They arent what you are building them up to be. stop sucking off the SEC. They weren’t scary.

 

[flips]

Some of that is pace of play.
Ole Miss purposely creates a lot of plays. And then has a very explosive offense. So by going fast and gaining lots of yards in single plays, you create more plays run against your defense. When more plays are run, your defense is going to give up more points and yards just from sheer volume of opportunity.

They are 50th in yppa, 84th in ypca, 28th in ypaa, 64th in ypcompletiona.

Their defense stinks

I think Weiss Jr. is going to have demands placed on him by Kiffin with the portal open; this will reduce his prep time for Miami.

We will need to attack them and then once we have the game in hand go to caveman ball. I think we will dominate the trenches against them but they will put some points up. This is a game Beck can throw for 300.

 

[BS85]

Insert Trinidad

 

[PIPO]

UGA let Chambliss get outside the pocket and paid for it. Im glad we faced a similar playing style in Marcel Reed recently.

The difference is that Chambliss is a better passer and more accurate.

We should be able to run on them a lot and cut down on their possessions.

Don't forget not picking and and tackling TE's.

RS made every goddam tight end look like Greg Olsen.

And every freshman qb look like a heisman,

Chambliss doesn’t have any eligibility. He trying to get a waiver

 

[Genghis Cane]

Ole Miss is a MUCH MORE talented SMU.

We should not be scared of them, but they present unique challenges, especially if we don’t show up with the same chip on our shoulder that we’ve had for over a month.

I have faith in Mario and the leaders on the team to not let everyone consume the rat poison. We’re on a mission and Ole Miss is the next obstacle. I don’t care how it looks — just win.

Statistically similar to SMU
