Is it a regional or national cover? I'm sure RebelBruiser or someone from Nafoom will come over to correct it for us and give us a count on how many Ole Miss has been on the front cover.

kellenburger is not going to like this. preseason heisman talk is frowned upon around here as long as the player is wearing maroon. im sure pete thamel will get a stern talking-to.

The other three covers feature teams SI has picked to be in the BCS playoff

Dak's southeast cover comes at the expense of Auburn, the other team SI picked to make the playoff. The story about Dak, written by Pete Thamel, also is teased on the front cover of every issue, regardless of the cover picture. Just further proof that Dak is the greatest and most popular football player to ever play at Mississippi State, and possibly the greatest, most popular, college football player ever in the state of Mississippi who doesn't have the last name Manning.

Who?......

What's a Jevan Snead? Sounds like a character in a Dr Seuss book.

They are so easily confused since Jevan Snead also led Ole Miss to a top ranking in the country and placed in the top 10 in Heisman voting.*

Hm... Dak's cover is unique...

Of the 4 covers, Dak's is the only one that includes only one person, the only one that does not picture the subject's entire body, the only one that includes a live animal mascot & does not include a costumed mascot (not sure that any of the others even have a live mascot). Not reading into or implying anything at all. Just making an observation.

Incidentally, the leperachan (sp?) looks like he's straining to drop a deuce.

Uga?....

You mean that fragile, inbred, canine basket case that spends entire games sleeping in his dog house, couldn't whip a blind three-legged chihuahua with the mange, and dies every other year?

Bully looks fine to me. Bulldogs are already quite ugly by design. This one looks pretty fit to me.

Pad level needs work**

I've noticed that knee pads are a complete sham nowadays. Just about every skill player either has them pulled up, doing no good, or they don't wear any at all. I understand the comfort/freedom/speed issue, as I didn't really like them either back in the day, but it seems like you would want some sort of protection since your knees hit on basically every tackle...

Speaking as an old guy with two bad knees, this flippant attitude about proper knee protection will catch up with them one day. Kids these days, amiright??

TBT 1970 the last time Ole Miss had this much to be excited about at the QB position. Yes I am directly implying that nationally Dak is much bigger news than Eli was nationally in their senior years.
