I didn't get to watch the game, but I predicted that we would be less than stellar. As Koko posted, it happens every year. I'm not concerned. We will most certainly step it up against Ole Miss. We stopped running against them last year and that proved to be a mistake. We will be able run on them again this year, and will, early and often. Look for the Drake to be on a mission. I'm betting he will run amok.
Our problem last year was shooting ourselves in the foot. An interception & lost fumble in the 4th quarter, Drake's gruesome injury, 1-3 in FG's, & 8 penalties, all killed us.
In the 2nd half of the game, we were trying too hard to pass when the running game had been working well in the first half, even in the face of Drake's injury. The left side of our O line was having their way with the Ole Miss D. We don't need to abandon the run next week.
