Ole Miss Game Week Practice Reports and Media Appearances
- Thread starter RTR91
- Start date
On SEC call, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze says possibility of turnovers will affect his play-calling in hopes of trying to "minimize the risk"
Yes slide! I think if he'd gotten a better block, not that it was bad, he'd still be running. The tackle didn't look all that bad, but he landed on it with his and the tackler's weight. I think he'll be fine.
Either he's trying to play Saban and Alabama, or he's going to be overly conservative and lose the game.
He's not going to have a choice other than to put the ball in Bo Wallace's hands. Their little scat backs aren't going to be able to sustain a running attack against us..
Thanks for the report. I don't think Eddie Jackson and Tony Brown should be "competing" against each other. I think they should be our two starting corners. One on one side, and one on the other.

I hate hearing that about T Jones. I know we have plenty in the stable, but I liked watching him run.
