Don’t be fooled by the lack of buzz, though.

“They spread you from sideline to sideline and give (Prescott) a lot of options once the ball is snapped”, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said. We’re going to be flying around.
Holly Barnes, a nurse from Oxford, Mississippi, says in a Facebook post and video which has since gone viral, that her husband Chris was ‘wrongfully assaulted on campus during the Ole Miss vs LSU game ‘ on Friday. During that stretch, he’s caught 29 passes for 383 yards and three touchdowns…. The threat of Treadwell burning offenses deep has opened things up for Cody Core, Quincy Adeboyejo, Damore’ea Stringfellow and tight end Evan Engram to exploit one-on-one matchups.
Ole Miss visits Bradley on Saturday. “He brings improvisational skills”. Even though the Bulldogs are not the “true” rival of the Rebels, this is still very much a deal breaker in Oxford. He can avoid pressure.
Before the post-Thanksgiving trip to Starkville, No. 25 Ole Miss (7-3, 4-2 SEC) will host No. 17 LSU (7-2, 4-2 SEC) in a clash of teams now tied for second in the SEC West standings. The senior defensive back started the season at rover, moved to Huskie to fill in for the injured Tony Conner and is now splitting time between Huskie and corner with Conner’s knee injury still bothering him and the cornerback play being suspect.
Football games are wonderful, and we love watching football in the comfort of our own homes. There may be some updates in the stadium. “It’s going to be a really tough environment for us”.
It’s late November and that means it’s time for the annual Egg Bowl game. “We should play with everything that we have”.
“It’s a game that’s special in the state, “stated Prescott”.
Quarterback Dak Prescott has been the main offensive weapon for Mississippi State and he’s coming off a super effort in leading the Bulldogs past Arkansas 51-50. He also has 24 touchdowns (nine rushing, 15 passing) with zero turnovers in the red zone. It’s hard to overstate how important Prescott is to the Bulldogs’ offense. I want his NAME AND BADGE! “He shows it on the field”.
Dan Mullen has compiled 4 wins and 2 losses in the Egg Bowl. He entered last week’s game third on the team in tackles and now is the leader in that category with 72 stops.
High-scoring? Major bowl implications? There’s little chance a SEC title will be, either.
Sure, there are some great games of national importance on the line on Saturday night like Notre Dame at Stanford, Florida State at Florida and Oklahoma at Oklahoma State.

It could wind up being the best game of the weekend.
