Hi Rebels. BYU fans here looking forward to the game. I was reviewing Old Miss roster and noticed that several OL were not on this years roster that played last year. What happened to them?

The 2 that came to mind was Logan Clair and EJ Epperson. Both are missing from the 2011 roster. I know your OL will be good but I only see 11 players listed as OL. To me, that seems not a very deep.

Thanks for your reply and hope its a great game on Sat with no injuries!

E J Epperson is now a Fullback and TE Logan Clair was a grade casualty I think. I might be wrong about Logan.

Yeah we're not deep at all at any position. Should be high school scrimmage for BYU. I mean with an SEC schedule we figure why bother having any depth anywhere...

Best of luck.

I fully expect to be heading for the nearest exit by the end of the 1st quarter and will likely be home in time to finish watching the game's miserable conclusion from the comfort of my living room.

I figured I would sell my tickets, maybe have to give them away. Just so that I wouldn't feel bad about not recycling the paper.

Yeah don't worry about the Offensive line. What was it? 9 or 10? That started multiple games last year. Due to injuries, illness, Rigshawed, etc..

Epperson has never been an OL; started out at TE for a season and eventually moved to FB; Clair left the program, academics cited.
As to the numbers, we have 18 listed OL (some are designated as C, some as OL, some as OG, some as OT), 14 returners and 4 true frosh; of the 14 returners, 9 have starting experience. In comparison, BYU has 17 players listed as OL.

I'm not sure what roster he was looking at, but I just checked the ole miss roster and counted 17 interior offensive linemen, several of whom have playing time in real games. I think that our OL is overhyped just a little, but they are good and they are deep.
