Summary
LSU’s Jayden Daniels is, statistically, the most effective scrambling quarterback in the country.
The exact kind of quarterback Ole Miss has struggled with all season.
Actually, just last week, the Rebels had few answers for a similar, if lesser, quarterback. Robby Ashford combined for 210 yards of offense and four touchdowns in a closer-than-it-should-have-been 48-34 Ole Miss win.
He wasn’t the only one.
Braylon Braxton replaced injured Tulsa starter Davis Brin last month and posted 122 total yards, including 39 rushing, most of which came on improvised plays with his legs. Ole Miss won 35-27.
The Rebels (7-0, 3-0 SEC) have matched the 2014 team for the best start to a season since the 60s. Coincidentally, Ole Miss suffered their first loss in its eighth game at LSU.
How can these Rebels avoid a similar fate?
Nick Suss (Clarion-Ledger) has the breakdown in the latest edition of Talk of Champions, an Ole Miss podcast, in association with the Ole Miss Spirit. Plus, Nick and Troy’s trip to Wendy’s, the evenness of the matchup and three Ole Miss reasons to be cocky and three reasons to be worried about the trip to Red Stick.
“Cocky No. 1, I don’t know if they can slow down (Zach) Evans and (Quinshon) Judkins,” Suss said. "Cocky No. 2, LSU’s offensive line has been patchwork at times this year and Ole Miss should be able to play downhill. Cocky No. 3, LSU’s specials teams have been a disaster. Those self-inflicted errors can come back to help a team like Ole Miss in a close game.
“Scared No. 1, Jayden Daniels scored six touchdowns last week, three through the air (and) three on the ground. He seems to finally be playing like the five-star recruit we thought he was four years ago. Scared No. 2, LSU’s pass rush is incredible, and Jaxson Dart’s been pressured on a third of his drop-backs this year. I know he’s not sacked very much, but they’re going to take him out of rhythm, more than likely, on these pass plays.
“Scared No. 3, Tiger Stadium. They’re playing on the road at Tiger Stadium, which is something, historically, Ole Miss has not been very good at.”
