Jevon Snead and Ole Miss take on South Carolina Thursday Night
It is still early in the season so the first game of the week is not Kent State at Toledo, Buffalo at Temple or the highly anticipated battle for state supremacy, Central Michigan vs. Western Michigan. Don’t get me wrong, I love the MAC and these games, while not featuring the highest calibre of talent are hard fought and highly entertaining. But this week we get a treat as the SEC replaces the ACC on Thursday night pitting highly rated Ole Miss against ever frustrating South Carolina from Columbia. S.C.
To this point I think both teams have performed as expected. Ole Miss has been riding high as a potential spoiler to Florida’s bid for another SEC championship. They are currently 2-0 but they haven’t been tested against good competition in their non-conference schedule.
South Carolina enters the game with a 2-1 record. They completely shut down Russell Wilson and North Carolina State in the opener but lost to Georgia in an unexpectedly high scoring thriller and whipped Florida Atlantic last weekend. Stephen Garcia is showing flashes of brilliance while frustrating his coaches as usual.
