Ole Miss doesn't score 3 TDs. They might put two late ones up when the backups are in.

Is AJ Brown back for this game? What about the center for Ole Miss?
A backup center going against Payne, doesn't look to good for Ole Miss.

Ole Miss hasn't quit yet, but also can't stop the run.
Concern for Bama is inability to rush the passer without blitzing, but that may change depending on who is available at center for Ole Miss.
Shea Patterson with those WRs will cause major problems if given time. Bama needs to put him on his arse early and often and the Ole Miss defense in the fetal position with a couple early soul crushing 12 play run drives. That happens I think they quit early and we are talking 42-10.
If they can't impact him consistently their offense will hit enough big plays to make it closer than it should be on paper and Ole Miss will cover easily in what will turn into a shootout, but still a Bama win.

I think they ruled the center out. Brown and their kicker will be game time decisions.

Cal isn't a great running team but aside from a 25 yard run late, Ole Miss defended the run well against them. Their backs had more success against #5 USC than Ole Miss.
Bama is obviously a very different animal and prior to the Cal game, Ole Miss was pretty bad against the run. Not sure if that's a sign of improvement or a one-off.

I'm with Tom, pain and lots of it.
Don't believe OM scores over 14-17 points.
By the 4th quarter the Tide will be Rolling.

I'm usually pretty conservative but I sense a major arse kicking coming.

AJ is, but our center is out still along with back up center. O line was a mess when center went out

not the guys you want struggling when facing Bama.
I still just can't see that big of a spread. I should prolly just stay way from this game. Good Luck

Remaster, AJ will play but the center won’t. Right guard was trying to learn center position over the past two weeks since both starter and backup are out
Posted on 9/29/17 at 10:19 am to TrueReb13
One would hope that snap issues won't be an issue after 2 weeks. Someone who hadn't actually played center got thrown in and he definitely had issues. He won't be the center against Bama.

OM will hold their own for maybe first QTR, then will fall away, lose heart early in 2nd qtr and by end of game the score will be AL 40+, OM 0
No OM troll intended. Just the facts.

This should be a no-brainer, even for Les Miles. Bama doesn't have to defend the run; pressure the QB, don't give up the big play through the air. After a few sacks, Patterson will think he's holding a live grenade. # INTs = # big plays.
Ole Miss can stop the run only by loading the box, which Hurts is more than capable of exploiting.
Be patient, wear down the defense, rely on defense and special teams to maintain favorable field position.
When an outmatched opponent upsets a giant, the giant is mentally unprepared = looking past that opponent. Has this ever happened under Saban?

Nearly. 2014 at Arkansas. Won 14-13. Sloppy game.
