How to spend a weekend without Ole Miss football

After five weeks of two years’ worth of living, Ole Miss gets a chance to shut down the engines, rest beside the still waters, and restore its soul for a few days.

First, and most importantly, knowing that you’ll wake up on Saturday and experience no anxiety, stress, or dread is a 2014 Auburn #blessed gift (unless Arkansas decides to tease us by threatening to beat Alabama, in which case we have no choice but to welcome the warm embrace of CRIPPLING ANXIETY).
