Neil - Ole Miss Love

@Neal McCready you don’t seem to be much different than the rest of the Ole Miss fan base…. Never scene you more excited to cover the team and aligned with Ole Miss hatred of our rivals.

I think the site has gotten use to your journalistic approach to the job and unique resume in this industry where you did not come from the school.

Similar to questions that are asked of Lane, have you ever felt more comfortable covering, maybe even cheering for, but more importantly hating Ole Miss’s rivals?

Hypocrisy at it's finest

At the least 2nd poster has some common sense:

    Why does the SEC allow Ole Miss to use a fire extinguisher to celebrate on the sideline during the middle of a game on the a road? They did last night and two years ago here. Not only is it unsportsmanlike behavior and should be a penalty, it is unsafe--bouncing a kid on a player's shoulders while emptying a freaking fire extinguisher, along for the people working the game on the sideline. I am allowed to bring a fire extinguisher to my seat for the game? Sankey and the officials should stop this childish nonsense!

    Do you bring a cowbell to the game?

We are awfully close to week 1 for the Rebs and week 0 (which I've always thought was ridiculously named) from CFB season..

I'm leaning towards 8-4 (4-4)

The season breaks down in this manner:

Wins - Mercer, GA Tech, ULM, Vanderbilt

Swing - @ Tulane, Arkansas, @ Auburn, Texas A&M, @ Miss State,

Losses - @ Bama, LSU, @ UGA

I am tempted to remove @ Tulane from the swing game category because I believe Ole Miss wins that game and if Ole Miss is not able to basically "out talent" Tulane then the rest of the swing games could be brutal. If you offered Lane Kiffin a 2-2 road record in SEC play right now, I think he'd shake your hand and ask no questions. This isn't a talented Auburn team, but Ole Miss has had so little success against Auburn. Texas A&M is the biggest swing game and the biggest swing team, I think they could go 10-2 or 5-7. Arkansas remains a tough matchup, but Ole Miss gets them in Oxford.

I know some people are down on Alabama, but man... Saban is worth 9 or 10 wins by himself? Their OL is getting rave reviews in camp. I am buying LSU stock as they have a proven QB that doesn't turn the ball over and Kelly is another excellent coach. I have to believe UGA is also excellent, despite the public underrating how good Stetson Bennett was in 2022 and 2021.

As it relates to Ole Miss, specifically, there will be a lot of new faces defensively. I wonder if there is enough depth in the front 7. From what it sounds like, the WR room and TE room should be better than they were in 2022. I would expect Dart to improve, although I thought when Sanders transferred in that he was doing so to be the starter. Sanders was Big 12 PoY but it sounds like the job is Dart's at this point.
