Seeing a lot of people on this board, not just Ole Miss fans, who think they are going to go into Austin and manhandle the Longhorns. Just want to know why you all are coming to this conclusion after being on the receiving end of a beatdown at home in 2012. What will be different this time?

Didn't you hear they just won the BVVA Compass Bowl

Confidence. Won the Egg Bowl and the Compass Bowl. That bus is rolling straight to Atlanta.

I think we have the confidence and tools to win, but I don't think it will be a blow out.

A very confident inferiority complex that will only germinate during the offseason.. This, and Mack Brown shits his pants..

1. Year 2 in the Freeze system
2. No Marquise Goodwin (was a senior IIRC)
3. Ole Miss' best defensive player won't be suspended for the game this time.
4. Mack Brown is still the head coach.
5. Manny _iaz is still the coordinator on the side of the ball that isn't offense

I would think they need to worry about Vandy first.

I have no problem with Ole Miss being confident. Freeze is the real deal. Right now, I think he might be the third best coach in the West, behind Saban and Sumlin. And yes, ahead of Les. I said right now, which means who I want leading my team next year. I'll pass on the stubborn moron without an offense.

They were a dangerous team at the end of this past year. If OM can build off of that, then they will be a tough time for any team.

Link?
I see a lot of posts saying we can win the game, and should put up a better showing on both sides of the ball than we did last year.
I have not seen any posts similar to what you described above.

Um, where?
I've never seen or heard an Ole Miss fan say that we should "destroy" Texas next year. Do we have a shot to win? Sure, but "destroy?" Come on.

I hope Ole Miss does beat TX and State beats Ok St to start the year. Would be hilarious.

Why are you stressing about something that's nine months away? Jeezum crickets...
But what the heck - Geaux Rebs....

Some things to think about...
The game in Oxford was early in the year before we had really established any kind of identity offensively and especially defensively. At that point in the season our D was playing on its heels. By the end of the season, I feel like a lot of that was corrected.
Next year:
1. The talent gap will be closed significantly
2. QB play should be better assuming Bro Wallace's shoulder is healed
3. Our defense will be exponentially better: DL will add talent, DT shackelford is returning, secondary had experience plus adding nick brassell will help
4. Revenge factor for getting embarrassed a year prior. OM is a dangerous team when it feels like its back is against the wall and has something to prove. This has always been the case.
5. There's a good chance Mack Brown has a heart attack when he sees the brothers Nkemdiche on the same team
Simply put, the 2013 OM team will be leaps and bounds better than the team Ut played at the beginning of 2012.

Texas is a shell of its former self so unless they make some drastic changes I can see Ole Miss getting a W in Austin next year.

Because last season, perhaps our biggest problem is that our team didn't know how to win. We just fricked up 3 games we should have won and just didn't know how to keep a lead. Ole Miss historically almost always gets better as it achieves momentum and the season goes on. Ole Miss now knows how to win and we've got confidence. That's going to be the difference between this year and last year. Don't expect a beatdown like last year, because its not going to happen. We may lose, but its not going to be lost by double digits.

I was on the OM bandwagon and thought they'd give Texas a game this year. Big frick up on my part

I think they are going to beat Texas this time.
They won't have their best DB out with suspension in this one, will get Brassell back, etc... Basically, they won't get beat deep 10x in a manner that daggers them...

Did this turn into an Egg Bowl thread?
As far as the OP goes, I'm not sure how Texas beat Ole Miss this year since I think Ole Miss is a better team. Texas has a better defense in some areas but Ash is an incredibly inconsistent QBs and most of their skill players on offense aren't much more dependable.
