The Ole Miss Thread

I've only watched him 3-4 games. Can you compare his game to:

D'eriq King
Marcel Reed
Tommy Castellanos (ha)
Jaxson Dart

He looks like he throws the ball better than Reed.

He throws the ball better than all but maybe Dart
He’s a lot better than castellanos
Think 4th quarter fsu….Chambliss can do that all game if we aren’t prepared and execute

I think a lot of fans are looking at the highlights and box score, and didn’t watch the game. UGA is a worse version of Miami. The main reason they lost is Smart went brain dead and they made unbelievably bad calls.

The most obvious is the 4th and 2 from their own 33 with 9:40 to go in the 4th. This one was actually a mental mistake by the center. He wasn’t supposed to snap the ball. I don’t know what he was thinking. Smart said after the game the ball wasn’t supposed to be snapped. Stockton wasn’t ready for it and it ended up making it a 10 pt game.

The anemic UGA offense still drove down the field and scored in under 2 minutes to come within 3. And then they forced a 3 and out on this “juggernaut” offense, then got a field goal to tie it up. But this was again one of the worst cases of clock management you will ever see. If UGA runs the ball on 3rd down and doesn’t get the TD, they kick a FG with 10-15 seconds left on the clock. It took around 35 seconds for Ole **** to get into FG range. Virtual certainty the game goes to OT if UGA runs the ball on 3rd down. Would Ole **** won in OT? Maybe, but personally I doubt it.

As it stands, UGA did everything it could to give the game to Ole ****, was on the verge of winning, but finally succeeded in giving them a W with under a minute through horrible clock management and one mistake after another. Miami can do everything UGA can do, only without the mental errors.

Based on the Ole ****-UGA game I still think UGA would have been the tougher opponent because it would be our 3rd rock fight in a row. Ole Miss is a finesse team and its success depends largely on the opponent shooting itself in the foot repeatedly. I don’t think we will so I think we win by a bigger margin than a lot of Miami fans expect.

He’s literally Marcel Reed with great footwork. Which is a great player. He has the same flaws. He doesn’t actually get the ball out quick unless it’s the play call. He doesn’t want to check down unless pressured into it. Just don’t blitz him. Let him self destruct

Marcel Reed turns the ball over much more though

The funny part is what we just beat, T AM, OSU, etc. We beat SEC during the regular season. And finally, the SEC record in the bowl games against anyone other than themselves has been abysmal.

Add ND to that as well - who frankly should have been a playoff team over Bama and/or Oklahoma.

It’s delusion on the level of mental illness.

What’s even crazier, Ole Miss was out coached by Kirby even with all his issues. Chambliss just went into god mode late in that game. They weren’t prepared for the delays blitzes. Chambliss just went into backyard mode.

Their defense was essentially Swiss cheese in pass coverage but Stockton is a below average passer. So he missed guys who were wide *** open.

We should have success running and throwing. Just have to keep ourselves playing mistake free football.

Ohio State’s offense was good. But doesn’t rank as high in the metrics as Ole Miss.

And was more tailor made for us because it plays at a really slow pace, OL graded out poorly in pass blocking, and QB was immobile.

Metrics are for nerds and homosexuals. Real world football, Ohio St would have stomped Ole Miss into a mud hole.

I started watching their games yesterday, and let me tell you… they sure as **** call a ton of quick passes. DBs better tackle as well as they have all season.

I wasn’t surprised by almost anything TAMU did. ****, I can tell you when they ran that same play Fitz picked off earlier in the year (South Carolina on a critical 3rd down). I watched every snap of their season and they mostly stuck with what they had previously done, though they ran Reed less than I thought they would. Should we expect to be surprised by something new from Ole Miss? Should we expect Trinidad to run a bit more than TAMU tried with Reed?

It would actually expect them to try to run the ball a whole lot more. They don’t want to live in 3rd and long against us. They have to help the interior of their o-line a bunch so that means bail, mesi and Lightfoot will party in the backfield. So unless we play tight expect a lot of hitch’s routes to the outside and crossers.

I mean for sure. Reed is willing to put the ball into play a whole lot more. Chambliss just does the exact opposite. He’ll try to make a throw if it’s there but he’ll check down or eat it all together which is still a win for us

Appreciate @JustAFanHTX 's thoughts but a good version of Marcel Reed is very hard to stop. First read and all, the guy is dynamic and **** and will take our best game to stop them.

Stopping chambliss isn’t really the school of thought you should live in. Stopping everything else is much easier and will cause him to self destruct
