Hugh Freeze offered a wry smile on Wednesday when he was asked about his team being in the middle of a rugged September schedule. One that has the Rebels facing the No. 1 and 2 ranked teams in the country in the first three weeks.
“It’s not much fun for sure,” Freeze said. “The Saturdays are. We’ll be excited to compete this Saturday but you know that the games can go either way.”
Here Ole Miss sits, two weeks removed from having the wind knocked out of them in a lopsided second half on Labor Day night against Florida Sate, and just a couple of days away from facing top-ranked Alabama to open SEC play.
