Point blank TAMU is gonna play defense which means Ole Miss has to be able to play defense as well. We know we have a great offense but the defensive side has to establish itself early and often. This defense has shown they can play shut down defense but they have to be consistent in getting off the field as quickly as possible and that translates into three and outs.

After the loss to South Carolina we have to expect McGriff to make some serious changes in some key areas which were issues against both Auburn and South Carolina and were both losses.

The more pressure they can put on the TAMU passing game the more likely the Rebels can take advantage of big plays on defense. But they have to stop the run too in order to get the Rebels in line for their sixth win of the 2018 season.
