AKIM POWELL STAFF WRITER
This is the best time of the year for Ole Miss football fanatics and students. We can all rejoice because it’s finally Grove season, which means Trashcan Friday is in full swing. We kicked off the season with a win against South Alabama, but I want to make sure the rest of this season is a win for all of you. Tailgating is truly an exhilarating experience, especially if you know what you’re doing. For questions concerning game day preparedness, no worries – The Daily Mississippian has you covered.

Will what makes or Jason Simpson preparing for the prolific, primarily air, attack? breaks this game be what happens between Shea Patterson versus the UTM defense?

There’s really no room for error for the defense Saturday. Coming off of is a different case, accounting for 435 yards total offense on his own last a game where the defense dominated, it can’t get too confident. Yes, that was week. Being that UTM’s defense shined against a school like Clarion, I think good against Clarion, but the reality is that Clarion is a Division II team … Ole he should still fair just fine, but certainly head coach Matt Luke and offensive Miss is a Football Bowl Subdivision Division I team in the SEC – the UTM defense coordinator Phil Longo both have been working to prepare for the hectic is aware of the daunting task it has ahead. 3-3-5 defense all week.

GW: Shea is Shea. The No. 1 quarterback in the nation two years ago, the kid can ball. We’ve been waiting for the Shea Patterson era in Oxford for a minute now. While it came to us early, after Chad Kelly went down last fall, we saw sparks of greatness. Now it’s his team. He put up silly numbers in week one, and there’s no telling what he can do if he stays healthy. VISIT THEDMONLINE.COM FOR THE FULL CONVERSATION
