Tony Connor out a month..

With a nee..

At Florida could be an issue. Florida's defense is the best in the sec, but OM will have to turn the ball over.

 

[Bulldogg31]

You guys are going to think this is crazy, and it is, but Memphis has won 11 games in a row.

They have a QB who is throwing for almost 300 yards a game and completing 75% of his passes.

75%? That's insane!

They're running the ball pretty well, too. Granted their opponents haven't been great, but they play with a lot of swagger, they've got a ton of confidence, and it's a home game for them.

I don't think OM will lose to Memphis, but I'm glad they aren't on our schedule this year.

That game looks much tougher than I anticipated before the season.

They are not physical enough to scare the Rebs. But they will score some points.

If you were playing the "Ole Miss and Memphis might both be undefeated when they meet on Oct 17" drinking game listening to Memphis radio this morning, you are likely in a coma right now. The slobbering love fest is going to make that stuff impossible to listen to for a month.

I think the bears will win, but it won't be a cakewalk like the first two weeks. There will be some bruises after that one. This will be like those 80's games for USM when they played us or OM. Biggest game on their schedule.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

Florida will have to come a long way offensively. It's crazy how limited they are.

Against Memphis? No. It will be like last year....the Rebs will pull away late...something like 45-24.

I think McElwain can counter Freeze's teeth but doze Kelly eyebrows might be an issue for Florida to handle.

Florida will have to win the TO battle. I think Florida's defense (assuming no offensive TOs) can hold om to around 24.

 

[PBRME]

I'm impressed with how fast Fuente turned Memphis around. Not impressed enough to believe the hype Memphis sports radio is building around that game.

 

[tatedog]

I was afraid George Lapides and Jeff Calkins were both going to soil themselves this morning. It will only get worse trust me.

That would be hard for George to do since he's dead.

 

[tatedog]

Did this happen in the last two hours?

 

[TheStateUofMS]

It's just crazy to think OM had a 60plus yard tip drill TD when Kelly literally had his eyes closed when he threw in double coverage and another 60ish yarder on what I like to call the "Hookwink" offense when they trick other teams on the ball Kelly threw when for some reason that CB commited to Kelly instead of sticking with his man.

His numbers looked really good, but he wasn't that good, but he def looks like he's in control of the offense. Man their offense would be awful if a transfer hadn't fallen into their lap.

BUT.....IF my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle too.

 

[BiscuitEater]

No ..

You guys are going to think this is crazy, and it is, but Memphis has won 11 games in a row.

You're not crazy and newsflash .. Mississippi State will have THEIR own "hands full" when we play La Tech. That team owns a deceiving 1-2 record BUT it took a Kansas State miracle pass on 3rd and 16 in the Third OT for K State to pull out the win.

Jeff Driskel (formally at Florida) led Louisiana Tech, throwing for 314 yards and a touchdown, and rushing for two more scores. Trent Taylor had 12 receptions for 148 yards and a touchdown in the near-upset.

We ALWAYS seem to play our worst against them. They appear on the schedule right before we host Kentucky.

 

[Drebin]

Sorry, confused him with someone else, but yeah, I guess anything could've happened in the last couple of hours.

 

[RebelBruiser]

I'm anxious to watch Memphis-Cincinnati Thursday.

Fuente has done a great job there, and that game will be a challenge for us. I'm pulling for them to beat Cincinnati, because if they do come into that game at 5-0, they'll be ranked in the Top 25, which looks better for us as the season progresses, assuming we don't let them bite us.

They've got a road game with USF after that which won't be a gimme either, but I'm curious to actually see them play for the first time.

 

[Palos verdes]

Big loss

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

I just hope their team is looking past vandy as much as their/our fans are.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Interesting comments from Bowling Green's coach after playing Tennessee and Memphis back-to-back...

[BELdog]

Are the teams going to have to answer calculus equations presented on the jumbotron during the Vandy game? Because that is the only chance Vandy has of beating Mississippi State or TSUN on a football field this year.

 

[Seinfeld]

I'm with you, BEL. I haven't seen the line yet, but whatever it is, I feel safe in saying that it's not high enough.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Boom.

Love it.
