To bring it in now, my co-host from Sports Talk Mississippi, along with our part-time analyst Richard Cross.

0:14.4

This is Michael Borky joining me here and Michael Borky, whatever you want to go by today.

0:20.9

I don't think I'm stretching the truth to say we both thought

0:24.4

old missiles going to be pretty good this year. We thought you know leg

0:27.2

kebins not gonna ever bottom out there there'll be a solid team. I think

0:30.6

that another 10 win season was not on our planning board for this.

0:34.5

What's been the biggest key for Ole Miss's success this year?
