Playing away has its benefits.....

there are times, depending on the team, when a big time home atmosphere can put added pressure on a team to win. It is expected by the home fans and the team feels it. Some teams play much more relaxed away from that....
Ole Miss never seemed to just relax and play vs TTech. Our Bulldogs let it all hang out after our loss to OK. TTech did the same at Oxford. Georgia lost at home as did Clemson and others. Playing at home does not show a big statistical advantage. It all depends on the make-up of the team. We have not been a good road team all year...until it mattered. Let the games begin....at Vanderbilt.

I also think our guys will feel "slighted" for having to go on the road, giving them an even bigger chip on the shoulder. We may lay an egg, but this team can very much win the SR.
