I believe Snead is back and the defense will be one of the toughest Arkansas will see all year. That and Arkansas coming off a game where they played their hearts out will experience a big emotional downturn.
Prediction :
Ole Miss 45
Arkansas 10
Ole Miss vs Arkansas

I Thank you.
I'm a big believer in emotion. I think it plays a large role in college football and last year I felt we had that advantage in this game. This year I think they do. Petrino told an Alumni group in Little Rock over the summer that not only would they beat Ole Miss this year, they will run up the score. With that kind of intensity and focus, I'm just not sure we can match them. After all, from our point of view, its just Arkansas.
Foward Rebels! March to Fame!

Dont read too much into that.. Petrino told a booster club what they wanted to hear. If coaches could deliver on everything they said UT would be #1 in the nation right now.. Maybe from some peoples' point of view its just arkansas but not Nutt for sure.. He will say the right things but he wants to beat arkansas as bad as anybody. He is a players coach and I am sure they will play their best for him...

We certainly have the better overall team...clearly the better defense...better RB's and I think better wide receivers. But predicting any of our games from here on out is a crap shoot at best, because we have no basis for any level of confidence in our QB play. It could be superb or it could be crap. Roll the dice...
Purely because of our defense and our coach's vested interest in winning this game and the fact that I think Mallett is a cocky little prima donna (talented cocky prima donna) that will ultimately lose control of his team by snapping at his receivers...I will say..
Ole Miss 34 (leap of faith...that the good #4 will show up)

We definitely have a better defense, although the piggies have looked better and better each week. I can't agree on the receivers though. They have some studs and that is even with their best receiver out. I'm just not confident in our offense. Beating up on UAB doesn't mean squat and we have looked very bad against SEC teams...

i don't believe mallett has had a game where he's made bad decisions, inaccurate at times yes, bama just got to him and was very physical with the recievers, nobody could get open and bama's front seven was in his face all day. i haven't watched ole miss since memphis, hows does Ole Miss's D compare to Bama's and Florida's?

it almost seems mallett hits covered recievers better than wide open onestidenumber1 wrote:I think you D will have Mallett making bad decisions.

The Hogs sacked Tebow 6 times. Does that not worry anyone? Especially with our O-line?

Arkansas is playing extremely well right now and they will come into this game with alot of anger from not pulling out that win against the gators and that scares me alot. To win this game we just have to move the ball and sustain long drives to keep that potent offense off the field. If we do that then we can win, if we don't then we lose so i'll put both circumstances up....
If we do those things: Ole miss-35 Arkansas- 28
If we don't do those things: Ole miss-17 Arkansas-38

don't give enough credit to our line. Ole Miss ranks 43 in the nation in sacks allowed, which is slightly better than average. Florida ranks 74 which is much worse than average. While it is true that Arkansas has a respectable pass rush (though that is the only thing respectible about their pass defense which ranks 100th in the nation), they are far below Alabama in sacks and Alabama did not sack Snead even once. I think that we'll do ok in the sacks against category.
