Okay, so Ole Miss - in one half - has 292 yards against the best yardage defense in CFB (223.2 PER GAME) and has 20 points against the 2nd best scoring defense (11.42 ppg)?????

And Ole Miss is missing twice as many players as Penn State is?????


I hesitate to put much on last night, but we're starting to get a trend here to me - and it doesn't bode well for Michigan.

Burn a timeout to stop the clock to run two running plays to get down to under ten seconds to run a running play to call another timeout to throw a Hail Mary? I’ll never understand analytics at this rate.

Penn State is the 3rd best team in the B1G, so who do all you think is 3rd best in the SEC? Missouri or Ole Miss?
Ole Miss.

I want to say not them, but their only two losses were to the two best teams in the SEC (kinda like 2011 Arkansas).

And while I understand you can't go off of this:
- they beat Ga Tech by more than UGA did
- they beat Auburn at JHS by more than we did and the same UGA did
- they beat Arky by more than we did
- Missouri lost to LSU

I know you can't go off of ONE data point but all those above suggest to me that while Ole Miss is NOT a title contender, they've had one helluva good year and are #3 in the SEC.

5/14 for PSU throwing the ball. So without the fluke tip play, and the trick play, it does look like Ole Miss has the clamps on psu so far.
