Line back up to 14 but it is a 5 cent line.

I just don't want the game moved to the SEC alternate channel.

I mean I want to believe we're good. These next two games we will get a better idea. Regardless I'll be in Oxford hoping for a W!

It's funny; when you read ole miss boards they talk about how cocky and insufferable our fanbase is after last year but virtually every tiger fan I know is optimistic yet grounded regarding this game.

Most Mississipi fans think all their actions, thoughts, opinions and tastes are better than anybody's else. Basically they are condescending pricks.

I've see them reference us as "the poor man's vandy" which is hilarious because their tradition post-Archie and pre-full throttle cheating era was the poor man's vandy of the west. For years they were an optimistic cruise control W on the schedule of a majority of their SEC brethren with a few years of competitiveness.

They have horses now (as they should based upon the NCAA rumors) but the delusion that their fans have regarding their history is astonishing.

I know our competition has SUCKED, but our defense is looking pretty strong in terms of points allowed but especially in takeaways. If we can win the turnover battle, we will keep it close and who knows what might happen. I know they shouldn't overlook us since we whipped them last year, but I hope a lot of their guys have it in their heads that "We should have beaten Florida State - we should have beaten Alabama - we just destroyed Georgia - Memphis has no chance".

I just wish we could take 60 or so points from last week down to Oxford.

We can win this.

Are we at all similar to Florida State, Bama, or Georgia?

The line shifting to Memphis +12.5 means a ton of money is being laid on Memphis to beat the spread.
I use the term the way you do but some folks use cover both ways.

A handicap of the point spread value is given to the favourite team so bettors can choose sides at equal odds. “Cover the spread” means that a favourite wins an event with the handicap taken into account or the underdog wins with additional points.
