Will we be in a state of mind where the team as a whole is ready to get after Old Mississippi? Or are we as a team still carrying around the loss that should not have been?
If somehow this team can be prepared mentally for this contest, it will be a fun day. If we are in a funk, it could be a butt kicking. Of course, Ole Miss has to deal with getting beat a couple of times lately, too. Which team is ready to go?
Ole Miss is a big play team. We want them on the field for long drives (on offense and defense). That’ll make it tough for them. But, if we allow a couple, quick easy 6 pointers early in Q1, it could be a tough game for our guys.
Limit the big plays, like UK did, and we should be fine.
