That was the tenth of ten in a row for the Rebels. I can see how a tired D happened. But the fluke play was just that. You'd never be able to pull it off again.


Never just one play that wins a game. That fluke play is a sum of many small mistakes that allows the play to take place.

Guess Ole Miss made a lot of plays to beat LSU, 38-17, then.

blackrose890: Kelly will not declare. He knows he has a shot at the SEC and the Heisman, and Uncle Jim (shown prominently at the Sugar Bowl) will make sure he understands he needs some fine-tuning. Engram has already said he is coming back. It's Treadwell, not Treadway. Even if he declares, there are plenty of other WR's that have experience--Adebojo, Stringfellow, etc.

Greg Little, a #1 recruit, will step in and take Tunsil's place. We played 7 games without Tunsil, so lots of other O-Linemen got experience. The team actually played better without the Nkemdiches. There are still plenty of players from the 2013 class with eligibility, and this year's class is rated #1 by at least two services.

We will not rebuild. We will reload. Wishful thinking on your part that we won't have the horses. You should worry about Fat Bert not being able to pull another miracle out of his paunch to avoid 6-6 seasons.


oh my......

Any clue whether or not your junior/senior class is going to be devastated yet? I assume that's Tunsil, Treadway, Core, LG, C, RT, RB for sure gone on offense with the potential of Engram and Kelly going pro too. And the Defense loses Ward, the Nkems, MLB, Saftey not Nkem, Nickle, and another DE. I just don't know if you guys have the horses next year.


Our offensive line will be as strong next year as it's ever been if Greg Little is even 70 percent of what Tunsil has been. We're only truly losing a right tackle. The offensive line unit we're losing are the backups/rotating players to our underclass linemen. Javon Patterson, Rod Taylor, Greg Little, Robert Conyers are all going to start and 3 of them have been starters minus some injuries with Taylor and Conyers. The only mystery is right tackle.

We're losing Jaylon Walton at RB but Akeem Judd has been the man for the second half of the season. He's the 225 pound running back that we've been wanting to play more over Walton.

At WR, we have the #1 WR from last year in Damarkus Lodge and a top 15 receiver in Van Jefferson. We also have DK Metcalf in the 2016 class with our fingers crossed for Nate Craig Myers. Not to mention we have Damorea Stringfellow and Markell Pack returning.

Also, Evan Engram has already stated he's not going pro.

The big players we replace that I'm most worried about replacing is Mike Hilton and Trae Elston. However, we get Tonny Conner back in the secondary for this senior season. He was the 4th head of that monster junior class.

Losing CJ Johnson at linebacker will sting but Demarquis Gates has played exceptionally well.

Breeland Speaks has dominated playing for Robert Nkemdiche.

There is this narrative that we somehow lose everyone this season. And offensively, I think we are as well equipped as we were this season with the addition of Greg Little. We'll have as much wide receiver talent, even with Treadwell's departure, as anyone else in the country.

Yes but you lose 4 lineman not one and tunsil wasnt a world beater day one. I understand you have a bunch of lineman, but you will also lose a bunch of them.



I see us as an 8 to 9 win team next year. Losing Tunsil is huge - even though we will have Greg Little starting in his place.
There IS a scenario where the line actually improves, but there are a lot of intangibles. We lose Bell (RG), Still (C), Cooper (RT) and Morris (LG). But all of those guys sans Cooper weren't the most talented at their positions, just put into starting positions because of injuries and experience. There is a possibility the line could be even better assuming Little can play to expectation. Javon Patterson was probably the more talented LG this year - just needed experience. Conyers will be back at center. Rod Taylor was drastically limited with shoulder injury - he will start at RG. Rawlings and Givens at RT.

Our starting line that we are replacing is LT Tunsil (Little reacing) LG Patterson (Back) C Conyers(back) RG Taylor(back) RT Cooper (replaced by Rawlings who started 7 games at RT

Receiver and running back will be great next year.

Our D line will be loaded. Lab and safety has some spots to fill but we do have talent that has got a lot of reps this year to fill it.

Ole Miss fans are retarded if they think Little will be 50% of what Tunsil was this year. Little is going to be a great LT but Tunsil is a once a decade LT talent.

Best in the SEC and it isn't close. I would not have wanted to play them last night, they were hitting on all cylinders in the sugar bowl.

Their is a big different a between thinking Little can be a good SEC left tackle and being as good as Tunsil.

Tunsil is special but Little has the potential be a good tackle.

We beat Alabama without Tunsil. So our signature win is with 0 percent of Tunsil. And you're 100 percent retarded for downplaying Little's utter dominance. He'll need about 3 games to become the left tackle we'll need him to be.

I like Kelly's toughness. He isn't afraid to take a hit or Kellycopter into the end zone. Seems he would be hard to injure. He's tough as nails and worked really hard this year.
