Revenge can be a powerful thing. The desire of capturing it can motivate and enhance a team’s performance, and after last year’s performance in Fayetteville, revenge is on the Rebels’ minds.
The 2014 matchup featured a 30-0 Razorback drubbing of an Ole Miss team that was running on fumes after their national championship dreams were ended three weeks earlier.
“Everybody knows what happened down there. We’re going to use that as motivation this week,” Mike Hilton, senior safety, said. “They came in fired up and got on us quick and took over.”
Last year’s one-sided affair didn’t sit well with senior safety Trae Elston, either.
