That is a big margin for Ole Miss. Way way back in yesteryear Memphis State was a 40 point favorite against Furman.........and lost.

If we take care of our business the rest of the season, nobody will care about the point spread come November.

That line on the South Dakota State game is interesting. Ok State is a top 20 team.

If I'm Oklahoma State, trying to get a bid to an expanded playoff, I'm having a discussion with my athletic director about scheduling South Dakota State.

Heard a national guy say the 2 games for possible upsets are the SD State and ND State game.

I would be fine with a 43 point margin.
I will not be surprised if it is closer to “2x43=86” than to 43,
therefore a 65-point margin which would be better than Mercer’s 66-point margin of exactly 1 year ago.
… Just play football, live another day to come home and play football the next week & the next & the next & the next & the next, etc.
… and if some miracle were to occur (ha ha) and we beat Ole Miss or played them to a close point margin, or if we lose by 110 points, remember that Ole Miss is the LEAST important game on our schedule.

Still one of my favorite bookmarked websites, if you want to keep up with all televised and streamed games each week of the season:
