1-Ryan Mallett will throw for more yards and TD's than Snead.

I completely agree with you on this point, however it is only because we are going to be running the clock out, while you guys are going to be playing from behind all of the time.

quote:

*He has possibly the strongest arm in the country. Most agree on this.

Brent Schaeffer quite possibly had the strongest arm in America...he also completed 38% of his passes.
quote:

He has the SEC All-Purpose yardage leader in the backfield, an SEC 1st Team TE, returns every starter at the WR position, and one of the best O-Lines in the conference.

Michael Smith had tons of yardage, but overall Ole Miss had a lot more yardage. Michael Smith was your only weapon out of the backfield. We had 4 players with at least 400 yards rushing.
Your wide recievers sucked, and you lost three of your offensive lineman, including Jonothan Luigs. DJ Williams is a beast, but he's the only thing you mentioned that is as good as you are trying to say it is.

quote:

*His coach, developer, and play caller is named Petrino. Snead has Nutt.

Mallet does indeed have Petrino. But why did Casey Dick's passer rating go down last year?
Jevan Snead has the best QB coach/O-coordinator in the league.

quote:

2- Arkansas will finish tied or higher than Old Piss.

While possible, this scenario is highly unlikely as Ole Miss has more returning starters from a better team. Arkansas will be improved.

quote:

*Old Piss claims to be set up for success because of a weak schedule. I can't argue this.

the second thing you've gotten right.

quote:

*Arkansas and Florida St. started the most freshman and true freshman in the country (23). If Old Piss can claim the West now, then I suppose Arkansas can make a greater case based on the same critieria. No one in the league returns more players that start than Arkansas.

Arkansas returns a lot of freshman that almost lost to Western Illinois and ULM. Ole Miss returns alot of upperclassmen who won 9 games.

I'm going to save this.

Everybody who says that Ole Miss is going to fall flat on it's face next year, think that this year was a fluke. Everybody who thinks this past year was a fluke, doesn't know how to read stats.

I think if you listen to most Hog fans, we have said Hootie will make your program better. Ole Miss will win games against better teams you should not beat, but you will also lose against teams you should beat.

Look at Hootie's overall record against KY and Vandy, not too impressive.

I am curious about Hootie's recruiting, traditionally he is not a great recruiter and has not been aggressive against the bigger programs. He did get lucky last year (and worked harder than I have seen him work in 10 years)and got some recruits late that improved Ole Miss's class. I will take luck every day of the week, and Hootie certainly has luck.

I believe the fallout at Arkansas has given Hootie a wakeup call and he is working harder than ever. I am curious about how this year will go for you guys. Hootie usually follows up a solid year with a "Does Not Meet Expectations" performance. (ie 1999 and 2007 are two examples).

We'll see, good luck to Ole Miss, I'll be cheering against you.
