This one should seem pretty cut and dry. Ole Miss is putting up
forty points a game to LSU’s 33.6 and we all know how LSU gets their
points – running the ball. More specifically, running the ball with
Leornard Fournette. Fournette may be the best player in college football
and is a wrecking ball who’s accumulated 1485 rushing yards at 6.9
yards a clip, but his Heisman hopes may have gotten crushed in back to
back losses where he could not run for over 100 yards. Teams have had
enough and are daring / inviting LSU to throw the ball by stacking as
many defenders in the box as they can to stop Fournette. It doesn’t get
much easier for LSU this week either. The Ole Miss Runnin’ Rebels
defense has only allowed five rushing touchdowns all year and are
holding the opposition to 3.2 yards a carry. This is a defense that is
strong enough and athletic enough to cause headaches for this LSU
offensive line. Ole Miss is suspect against the pass, but not to worry
when going against Brandon Harris who is netting about ten completed
passes a game and very rarely ever has more than two wide outs in the
huddle with him. The only thing that would make one think twice about
taking Ole Miss is that nobody likes four point spreads. If you can
take it down to three, then do so – if not – I’m sure you’ll be fine
anyway.8
