Congrats to Southen Miss getting back to their winning ways! Hope they find a way into the AAC where competition is far above where they are now. Not a strong Defensive league CUSA.

 

[aged eagle]

Would love to compete against Houston and Memphis again. Any guess about Ole Miss opponent in Sugar Bowl?

It will be interesting when Southern Miss does this with an SEC schedule. Against C-USA, not so much.

Seeing Baylor pop up a bunch but still have to have the Sugar Bowl Committee override Fla even in Fla. loss.

You have a point. But you did pad the stats a little with UT Martin, Fresno State, New Mexico State, and Vanderbilt.

 

[aged eagle]

Baylor vs. Ole Miss gives you a chance to move up the polls. Good match-up for Rebs.

Not as much as people want to believe. With the out of conference games, our starters were pulled at half time or at the latest midway through the third quarter. I'm not sure we padded any stats against Vandy as they were strong defensively.

This is a troll job, no way you are serious

 

[aged eagle]

Troll job? I have degrees from the University of Southern Mississippi and the University of Mississippi. I did not draw any conclusions, just posted raw stats from ESPN site. I am pleased with the season that Southern Miss has produced as I'm sure that you are with Reb's season.

You can't compare mullens statics with chad Kelly .Chad plays in sec mullens plays in C- USA . Mullens would not have half as much if he played in the Sec.

 

[NedThomas]

Whether Mullens played in a lesser conference or not, remember they did play State and Nebraska. How did he do in those two games? I am happy the State of Mississippi had two in the top ten in a couple of stats.

Against Mississippi State: Nick Mullens 30-44 311yds 1 TD 2 Int
Against Nebraska: Nick Mullens 26-41 447yds 2 TD

"QB rating" tells whole story.

National Rankings

4) Chad Kelly @ 86.4 SEC

41) Nick Mullens @ 67.7 C-USA

QBR? Are you kidding me? The most worthless stat ever created to make Manziel look good. It is computed using 6 completely subjective numbers. What I'm seeing on ESPN stats are QB ratings: Mullens 159.3 Kelly 154.4

Please click on the link I provided. Total QBR is the column on the far right. your comparison of a CUSA player's stats to a SEC player's stats is absurd when one considers the level of competition each player must face. Epitome of an apples to oranges comparison...And still, with the more difficult path, Kelly grades out higher than Mullens. Considerably higher.

Why are you even on here?? You don't give 2 $hits about Ole Miss as we don't you.

What's this troll stuff? I'm proud of USM, yet I am an Ole Miss grad. In fact, all the major Mississippi schools were successful, and that's great! Great for our state, too, as it sets a reputation that we play good football and bring in thousands of fans (prediction-USM is up and coming) and that we are not a boring state where nothing happens. But why is it so easy to point fingers at someone and accuse them of being trolls? Maybe I'm naive, but I highly doubt someone would waste their time just simply posting about football for nefarious reasons.

That's the motivation for like 75% of message board posts...

Some better stats:
Let me understand this...


Ole Miss “padded” their stats with games against

7-5 Ohio Valley Conference UT – Martin
3-9 Sunbelt Conference New Mexico State
3-9 Mountain West Conference Fresno State and
4-8 SEC Vanderbilt (thrown in as a bonus)


While USM did NOT “pad” their stats with games against

0-11 Ohio Valley Conference Austin Peay
3-9 Sunbelt Conference Texas State and
6 Conference-USA teams with losing records (1-11,2-10,3-9, 3 at 5-7)

9 Ole Miss opponents have winning records
8 Ole Miss opponents are going to Bowls

9 USM opponents have losing records


One other thought...

Beating MS State at Starkville is greater than losing to MS ST at home

 

[RebReb]

You might as well find the high school with the best stats in the nation and throw their stats out there for comparison since it would be just as meaningful.
